[line-clamp] A line-clamp container does not establish an independent
formatting context
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326200
<rdar://problem/189090409>
Reviewed by Antti Koivisto.
<div style="line-clamp: auto; max-height: 160px; line-height: 32px"><div
style="margin: 16px">Line 1<br>Line 2<br>Line 3<br>Line 4<br>Line 5</div></div>
The inner div's margins should stay inside the line-clamp container, so only 4
lines fit. The container does
not establish an independent formatting context, so the margins collapse
through it and 5 lines fit instead.
Per spec, a box with continue: discard (which is what line-clamp sets in
WebKit) "must establish an independent
formatting context".
