Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-borders] `border-radius` with a circular edge (#6467)

Sounds like the number this corresponds to is `min(50% * width, 50%  * height)`.
Those high numbers happen to produce this effect because of the way radius constraining works.

I wonder if the right direction here is [this comment](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6467#issuecomment-1124006844), e.g. have additional units that allow you to use the percentage of the opposite dimension, the same way you can use `vh` on width or `vmin`.

Perhaps `%h`, `%v`, `%max`, `%min`.

Also I'm sure these would be handy in the `shape()` function as well (and in other places that use this kind of percentage? background-sizing?) and not only for border-radius.
