[csswg-drafts] [css-anchor] Anchor positioning should be logical first, not physical (#8727)

jensimmons has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-anchor] Anchor positioning should be logical first, not physical ==
I started reading the specification for Anchor Positioning, and I was surprised to see it littered with examples that refer to `top`, `left`, etc. 

In 2023, as we design a new way to do layout, it should be _logical_ in the way it describes things. Not _physical_. 

Especially since this is a way to layout popovers in a dynamic fashion — where the designer is being suggestive, not being controlling. "Please try to put this popover over here if it fits, or over there if it doesn't." Here and there should refer to block and inline start, and end. Not top, bottom, left and right.
