Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-borders] allow multiple borders (#13044)

Oof and now I just started thinking it through in our most verbose syntax available: `border-block-start-color`.

If we were to focus on supporting only 2 borders instead of n borders, we would probably want the syntax to look something like:

- Shorthand: `border` + `border-outside`
- Specific: `border-block-start-color` + `border-outside-block-start-color`

I know this doesn't scale for more than 2 borders so this would be a rather opinionated addition. It does feel clearer to me than the n border syntax though because how do you define the offsets between borders? What if the offsets between borders 1 and 2 are to be different than borders 2 and 3?
