Summary:
We intend to ship CSS overflow:clip in v81, which is the standardized
version of a prefixed value (-moz-hidden-unscrollable) that we already
ship.  The prefixed value becomes an alias for the new value.
The standardized value is mostly compatible, but there are some
differences.  Most notably, we now support clipping in one axis
and overflowing in the other (i.e. 'clip' can be combined with
'visible' in the overflow-x/y properties).

Web-platform-tests:
Yes, some already exist and I've added more.

Secure contexts:
This will not be restricted to secure contexts, like many other CSS features.

Is this feature enabled by default in sandboxed iframes?
Yes, like many other CSS features.


Credit also goes to Jeremy Ir who implemented the initial version of
the style system changes for this feature.
