Re: [css-houdini-drafts] [css-typed-om] Make CSSUnitValue use unrestricted double (#1089)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-typed-om] Make CSSUnitValue use unrestricted double`.

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;flackr> discussion of who should take this<br>
&lt;flackr> fantasai: can we make progress without tab?<br>
&lt;flackr> bkardell_: tab had a proposed resolution<br>
&lt;Rossen_> linked resolution proposal: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/8114#issuecomment-1458935503<br>
&lt;flackr> Rossen_: summarizes linked proposal<br>
&lt;emilio> q+<br>
&lt;flackr> bkardell_: TabAtkins believes this is fine for cssom because we have the needed types<br>
&lt;Rossen_> ack emilio<br>
&lt;flackr> emilio: plain css values in the computed space are not allowed to be +/- infinity so it's a bit weird<br>
&lt;flackr> emilio: you usually need a calc to have an infinity and it gets simplified to a large number when computed, so it might be a bit inconsistent<br>
&lt;flackr> emilio: has anyone looked into this?<br>
&lt;flackr> Rossen_: tab has, and thinks it's okay<br>
&lt;flackr> emilio: If you assign an infinite value to a style map with a specified value, what does it turn into? is it implicitly wrapped in a calc?<br>
&lt;flackr> emilio: it's fine, but perhaps a bit odd that you'd get a calc back<br>
&lt;flackr> Rossen_: this is the discussion we need to have, let's wait for TabAtkins to push this forward since there are concerns<br>
&lt;flackr> emilio: sg<br>
