In particular, the *normal* path for work here is (1) lay out
according to width/height, (2) calculate the min-content width/height
and check whether or not you need to make a width/height adjustment to
bring it into conformance.

Assuming you either (a) don't use percentages in the children, or (b)
don't violate the min-width/height constraint, no additional work is
done.  It's only when you have a % child *and* violate
min-width/height that you have do to a second layout pass, because the
% children will change size.
