[list-marker] direction on ::marker moves the marker box to the wrong side of
the list item

::marker { direction: rtl }

The marker should stay outside the list item's content, to its left. Instead it
moved on
top of the content.
An outside marker is pulled out of the line by a negative inline-start margin,
which
updateInlineMargins() wrote with the logical setter. That resolves start
against the
marker's own direction, so a right-to-left marker got the negative margin on
its right
edge. Both readers ask the other way around, BoxGeometryUpdater against the
parent's
writing mode and RenderBlock::marginStartForChild against the containing
block's, so
they found nothing on the left and the marker stayed on the content.
Write the physical edges of the list item's inline axis instead: left and right
in a
horizontal writing mode, top and bottom in a vertical one, which is the axis
those readers
take them from. That is what css-lists-3 asks for as well: with marker-side:
match-self,
its initial value, the marker box is positioned using the directionality of the
::marker's
originating element rather than the marker's own.
