Issue with "outline-style": Formal Syntax incorrectly implies that all border-style values can be used.

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

Formal syntax auto | <'border-style'>

What did you expect to see?

Formal syntax auto | <outline-line-style>

According to specification outline-style property doesn't accept value "hidden", while border-style does. I believe it will be better to change Formal Syntax and mention how outline-line-style is different from border-style.

Hi, @timeowilliams. I've assigned you. Note that I'm transferring this to mdn/data where the formal syntax lives.

@teoli2003 Since the transition of {{CSSSyntax}} to webref, I guess this issue can now be closed (as well as the PR).

There are third-party users of mdn/data.
