Re: [w3c/manifest] Editorial: clarify when/how 'auto' is applied (#926)

@r12a that helps a lot! Thanks you. Just to be clear, the "base direction" is just the "ltr" or "rtl" or "auto" values, not the direction of the surrounding text. 

So:

```JSON 
{
   "dir": "auto",
   "description": "set my direction"
} 
```

base direction is "auto". 

So, with the updated text, we are now trying to say is: if "rtl" or "ltr" -> Rule P3 is overridden (as BIDI says to do). Otherwise, it's "auto", so do Rule P1.
