Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-grid-3] Renaming `masonry` keyword (#9733)

I don’t mind `masonry`, as it has become a fairly established term in the industry (we use terms like `leading` even though we’re not working with metal type anymore).

However, if we were wanting a different metaphor that might be more universally recognisable, I'd suggest `Tetris`, as the layout logic (especially with multi column elements) resembles the stacking behaviour of Tetris (though upside down, to be fair).

That said, I can also see the logic in ditching the metaphor and going with something more generic like `auto-flow`, `stack` or `pack`.
