Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-grid-3][masonry] Adjustments/additions to `grid` shorthanding (#12023)

One clarification on both of these shorthand proposal: if the directional property is set to `normal`, what happens?

For example, if we had `grid-lanes: 100px 100px normal;` I assume this will set `grid-template-columns: 100px 100px;`

But what if we had:
```
.container {
   display: grid-lanes;
   grid-template-rows: 90px;
   ...
   grid-lanes: 100px 100px normal;
}
```
Would we look at any other templating properties set before this and override rows instead of columns, or will we just assume if set on the shorthand, `normal` means columns? I presume it will always imply column, but want to double check.
