Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-inline-3] It's impossible to use `text-box-trim` without changing line progression within the paragraph (#8829)

Discussed this with @litherum and [WebKit] Alan. The suggestion is to fix this issue and #8696 by:

- Shifting the line-box-affecting aspects of `text-box-edge` to a new property (e.g. `text-line-edge`).

- Combining `text-box-edge` and `text-box-trim` into a shorthand property (e.g. `text-box`) that sets both, so that an author can get trimming to, for example, the cap height and alphabetic baseline in a single declaration.

Open questions:

- Whether or not the longhands should exist. (Their main benefit is for internationalization, since they allow the edges to cascade independently of whether or not the trimming happens.)

- Whether there should be an `auto` value that maps `text-box-edge` to `text-line-edge`.
