[svgwg] Issue: Add use and symbol elements to the Geometry Properties section marked as Needs data

dirkschulze has just labeled an issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg as "Needs data":

== Add use and symbol elements to the Geometry Properties section ==
The [Geometry Properties](https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/geometry.html) section doesn't say that the geometry properties apply to use and symbol elements. The sections about [use and symbol elements](https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/struct.html#SymbolElement) mentions that geometric properties do apply to them.

Make the x and y properties apply to use and symbol elements in the Geometry Properties section and mention those elements in its sizing section. 

Implementors reading the spec may forget that x, y, width and height should be geometry properties for use and symbol elements unless those properties are explicitly mentioned in the Geometry Properties section. As an example, here's a [Chrome bug](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=400725).
