Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-counter-styles-3] Should "Ready-made Counter Styles" be supported by UA? (#8636)

`@counter-style` makes perfect sense to support scripts that we _don't_ know about. Just like AAT fonts don't require Unicode shaping data, `hyphens:manual` supports content-provided hyphenation locations, `<br>` allows custom line breaking positions, etc.

If browsers know how a particular script's counters work, and implementation is possible (because it uses the `@counter-style` infrastructure), it seems like browsers should support those counters by default, without the page having to implement/maintain it themselves. In general, script-specific internationalization should work _by default_.
