Browsers such as Chrome and Firefox apply an arbitrary scale to the
current font size if `normal` is used for `line-height`. Firefox uses
1.2 while Chrome uses 1.15. Let's go with the latter for now, it's
relatively easy to change if we ever want to go back on that decision.
This also requires updating the expectations for a lot of layout tests.
The upside of this is that it's a bit easier to compare our layout
results to other browsers', especially Chrome.
When setting `font-family: monospace;` in CSS, we have to interpret
the keyword font sizes (small, medium, large, etc) as slightly smaller
for historical reasons. Normally the medium font size is 16px, but
for monospace it's 13px.
The way this needs to behave is extremely strange:
When encountering `font-family: monospace`, we have to go back and
replay the CSS cascade as if the medium font size had been 13px all
along. Otherwise relative values like 2em/200%/etc could have gotten
lost in the inheritance chain.
We implement this in a fairly naive way by explicitly checking for
`font-family: monospace` (note: it has to be *exactly* like that,
it can't be `font-family: monospace, Courier` or similar.)
When encountered, we simply walk the element ancestors and re-run the
cascade for the font-size property. This is clumsy and inefficient,
but it does work for the common cases.
Other browsers do more elaborate things that we should eventually care
about as well, such as user-configurable font settings, per-language
behavior, etc. For now, this is just something that allows us to handle
more WPT tests where things fall apart due to unexpected font sizes.

This change should move us forward toward emoji support, as we are no
longer limited by our own OpenType implementation, which was failing
to parse the TrueType Collection format used to store emoji fonts
(at least on macOS).
When traversing the layout tree to find an appropriate box child to
derive the baseline from. Only the child's margin and offset was being
applied. Now we sum each offset on the recursive call.
