Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-anchor-position-1][css-animations-2][scroll-animations-1] Fix name visibility for descendants (#13364)

> Proposal:

The `-scope` properties don't refer to ancestors. But this makes sense if we mean the properties governed by the `-scope` properties (`animation-timeline`, etc). 

Within the "names are global by default" world, I think this amounts to each named definition also quietly implying a named scope? In other words:

 - `scroll/view-timeline-name:--foo` implies `timeline-scope:--foo`.
 - `anchor-name:--foo` implies `anchor-scope:--foo`.
 - `timeline/event-trigger-name:--foo` implies `trigger-scope:--foo`.
