Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-text-4] Propose 'text-spacing: space-first' (trim-start-except-first-line) as a normal behavior (#2462)

`trim-start` will be the best for the typographic conventions, not only for Mainland Chinese but also for Japanese, but it cannot be the default behavior because of the compatibility problem with existing content. Do you think `space-start` is better than `space-first`? I cannot believe so.

When we want to achive the typographic conventions with CSS, we need to change property values from defaults. For example, the defaults `text-indent: 0` and `text-align: start` do not meet the conventions for Japanese normal paragraphs, and we have to change these values to achive the conventions. The same would be the case for `text-spacing`. To achive the typographic conventions, we will use `text-spacing: trim-start` (or `text-spacing: auto`, and/or `hanging-punctuation: first allow-end` for Japanese book style).
