Re: [css-flexbox] Alignment differences should depend on wrapping not # lines

This change seems fine to me.

IIRC, think the point of the existing behavior was to make
multi-line-with-just-one-line flex containers behave the same as
truly-single-line flex containers, for consistency's sake. For example,
in a flex container that just has one flex item, it would seem silly for
"flex-wrap:wrap" to change the layout, since clearly no wrapping can
happen when there's just one item.

However, I think you're right that it's probably more important to make
wrappable flex containers consistent on their layout/sizing behavior,
regardless of whether they end up needing to wrap or not, to avoid a
weird & surprising discontinuity when the last wrapped item stops
needing to be wrapped, in scenarios like the wide-monitor one you
brought up.
