Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-values] specification for calc() should be clearer about when the result has a percentage (#10017)

@cdoublev See the explanation in https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values/#exponent-funcs "Why does [hypot()](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values/#funcdef-hypot) allow dimensions (values with units), but [pow()](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values/#funcdef-pow) and [sqrt()](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values/#funcdef-sqrt) only work on numbers?"

It's not even clear what sine and friends would do with a dimension (other than an angle, with is dimensionless in math)

That said, things like `height: sqrt(50% / 1px)` should work, so making the type consistent preserves the percent hint.

I think Tab forgot about `log()` and `exp()`.
