Fixes #20652

This pull request seeks to update the width calculation applied to the gallery block columns. These changes are intended both as a simplification/unification of the width calculation, and as a resolution to a crash which occurs in Microsoft Edge.

As observed at #20652 (comment), the crash appears to occur as a result of the Edge-specific @supports (-ms-ime-align:auto) { block implemented in the gallery block styles.

As noted in #13326, the original issue #13270 is a result of how Edge interprets the width style. Compare how the style width: calc((100% - 16px * 2) / 3); is interpreted between Edge and Chrome:

Edge Chrome
Screen_Shot_2020-03-06_at_1_15_46_PM Screen_Shot_2020-03-06_at_1_16_03_PM

The proposed changes should apply effectively the same width, but simplify the calculation at compile time, resulting in the style calc(33.33333% - 10.66667px). It appears that this is handled better in Edge, avoiding the early wrapping, rounding down to 10.66px per column.

Aside: There is overflow which occurs in Edge for the gallery block, with or without these changes. This should probably be investigated separately.

Testing Instructions:

Repeat steps to reproduce from #20652, verifying that no crash occurs.

Repeat steps to reproduce from #13270 / testing instructions from #13326, verifying that gallery columns wrap as expected both in Edge and in your preferred browser.

Follow-up tasks:

There is another style which uses the problematic @supports(-ms-ime-align:auto) block:

// Rules inside this query are only run by Microsoft Edge.
// Edge has bugs around position: sticky;, so it needs a separate top rule.
// See also https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/platform/issues/17555420/.
@supports (-ms-ime-align:auto) {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
}

However, there is no immediate crash which occurs as a result of this style. The problem may only manifest as a combination of @supports within a @media media query. In any case, over time we should consider removing these Edge-specific styles, which are no longer valid in recent Chromium-based versions of Edge.

Much simpler code, nice.

Happy to see the before and after identical in editor and preview, at arbitrary column widths.

I can also confirm that Edge loads, and seems to work well, for me:
