Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-text-decor-4] Consider renaming `text-decoration-trim` (#8402)

Gap Decorations does use outsets right now, though in #12848 I'm contemplating flipping them to insets.

For the property we're discussing here, which do we expect to be the more common use case - extending or shrinking? Depending on the answer to that, I'd prefer either `outset` or `inset` respectively, such that positive values would reflect the more common case. I would prefer either of those over `trim` for the reasons @SebastianZ gave. I don't like `adjust` because that's not clear on which is the positive-value direction, or even what's being adjusted - I could see it being confused for adjustment up or down from the text baseline, for example.
