Bottom is the distance from the nearest ancestor reference area
*bottom* edge, not from the top one (the same for left), so we need to
know the reference bpd and ipd.
If I read the spec right, a 10pt bottom position set on the same
absolutely positioned block-container would be translated into
different top-positions according to the the reference bpd (= the
reference bottom edge).
