Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-ruby] alternating sides for ruby-position (#5971)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-ruby] alternating sides for ruby-position`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLVED: Add an alternate value which is the initial value`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;dael> Topic: [css-ruby] alternating sides for ruby-position<br>
&lt;dael> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5971<br>
&lt;dael> florian: 3 values, focus on over and under. Default is over<br>
&lt;dael> florian: If you have 1 layer it goes over. If 2 they both over and stack.If want one over one under need selector<br>
&lt;dael> florian: People sometimes want to stack, but majority is when you have 2 layers (3 almost not done) people want one on each side<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Separate selectors is annoying, esp given markup has anon boxes<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Prop is default value is auto or alternate which is over iwth 1, over and then under with 2, and continue alternating with more<br>
&lt;dael> myles: Didn't realize prop changing initial value. I think we have ruby in books which is scary.<br>
&lt;dael> myles: Separating changing initial value from the new propery is good<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Don't think you support multi-level<br>
&lt;dael> myles: Doesn't effect nested. Multi level ruby in same lement only?<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Yes.<br>
&lt;dael> myles: Then, now that I understand, if you tried to give this to use we would have longer ruby text on top<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Not sure, haven't loaded it. It's a separate issue from if you display on top or bottom<br>
&lt;dael> myles: General compat concern<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Yeah. If you don't support multi-level in same ruby structure<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Problem is same no matter if value<br>
&lt;dael> myles: If we impl multi level without this we would turn 1 level to 2. With this we would turn it into 1 level about and one below<br>
&lt;dael> s/about/above<br>
&lt;dael> florian: If I remember your current impl, yes<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: myles resolve or investigate?<br>
&lt;dael> myles: Okay resolve. If things explose come back<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: Add an alternate value which is the initial value<br>
&lt;dael> RESOLVED: Add an alternate value which is the initial value<br>
