Hi there!

Have a question prompted by http://crbug.com/294195

Basically, we have a parent with "width: min-content;" and a child
with "max-width: 100%;".

Now, normally an intrinsic width like that would be considered
indefinite, and therefore the max-width should also be indefinite. But
in this case, we're talking about widths, which are normally definite.

So... should this be treated as max-width: fill-available or as
max-width: none? And what should fill-available be in this
circumstance?
