[css-display] Inlinified layout-internal not well-defined #1582
Description
Now that #1390 removed the issue in the spec, the spec clearly says that e.g. an element with display: table-row that is inlinified should have an inline outer display type and a table-row inner display type. But this kind of box is not defined anywhere!
From #1390 it seems that inlinification should not affect layout-internal boxes.

Doesn't anonymous box fixup occur in that case, so such box ends up being an inline table?

@SelenIT If it's not possible for a layout-internal box to be inlinified, the spec should say so. However, I think layout-internal boxes are inlinified, because inlinification happens before the creation of intermediary anonymous boxes, as explained in the note:
Therefore, inlinification should have no effect on layout-internal boxes, and then they will generate anonymous boxes after inlinification.

I'm not entirely sure what the issue is here, but I've clarified the spec by pointing out what @SelenIT describes in #1582 (comment)
Let me know if there's anything further to address.
