Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-fonts-4] font-stretch is unfortunately named (#551)

> If you set one, does the other one’s computed style change? Do they appear distinct in the CSSOM? Do we use the shorthand mechanism to alias them?

I would propose:

- defining the property name as `font-width`
- declaring that "for historical reasons" a deprecated alias is accepted, `font-stretch`
- setting `font-stretch` actually sets `font-width`, they are not two separate properties
- getting either `font-stretch` or `font-width` gives you the computed value of `font-width`
- removing all uses of "stretch" in the property description
