Use logical instead of physical block margins

[emonadeo]

I am currently trying to use Capsize with text, that is rotated 90deg (using writing-mode: vertical-lr;). The current implementation always applies margin-top and margin-bottom, regardless of the actual orientation.

This PR replaces margin-top with margin-block-start and margin-bottom with margin-block-end, as these properties respect aforementioned text orientation.

From MDN:

This property corresponds to the margin-top and margin-bottom, or the margin-right and margin-left properties, depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.

However while this fixes text in vertical writing mode, it does not work with text in vertical writing mode and upright text orientation:

writing-mode: vertical-lr; // or vertical-rl;
text-orientation: upright;

This incorrectly (in the case of capsize) applies left and right margins when using start and end.

I personally think breaking this in favor of supporting vertical text is a worth trade-off, but this is of course up for discussion. Alternatively, this could be an extra opt-in option instead of replacing the current behavior.

I am not sure if this would affect east asian languages that may be written vertically. To my knowledge these are also written horizontally on the web.

Hey thanks for opening this. We havent been able to use this until very very recently with due to our browser support policy. I wonder if that would be a factor for others too?

Not wanting to add config for no reason, maybe we release this as a breaking change and then if there is a ground swell of people needing the explicit margin direction due to pre Safari 12, then we can add an option then.

How's that sound?

Sounds good to me. I am down to implement that option if that comes to be the case. Feel free to tag me then, as I probably won't be actively monitoring new issues of this repo.
