[i18n-drafts] [articles/vertical-text/index] Update this article (#668)

xfq has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/i18n-drafts:

== [articles/vertical-text/index]  Update this article ==
[source] (https://www.w3.org/International/articles/vertical-text/index.en.html) [en]

There are some areas that could be improved on this article:

## Browser support

### Sideways values of `writing-mode`

https://www.w3.org/International/articles/vertical-text/index.en.html#other-wmode

per https://www.w3.org/TR/latn-gap/#issue11_writing_mode Blink and WebKit now support sideways values of `writing-mode`.

### Forms

https://www.w3.org/International/articles/vertical-text/index.en.html#forms

This section needs to be updated to reflect the current implementations.

## `direction` property

We should probably discuss the `direction` property's role in controlling the orientation of vertical form elements.

By default, the controls have a `direction` value of `ltr`. This causes sliders and progress bars to be drawn from top to bottom.

You can change this by setting `direction: rtl` — this causes them to be drawn from bottom to top instead.
