Bug 1823516: Adjust text-input-block-size.optional.html to use Ahem with a nice font-size, for predictable whole-number baselines and sizing. r=ntim Before this patch, Firefox fails this test's expectations on Linux, with a 1px sizing discrepancy between the input element in a vertical writing-mode vs. horizontal. That discrepancy is almost certainly due to the difference in baselines (central vs. ideographic) in vertical vs. horizontal writing-modes, and the fact that pixel-snapping that baseline might produce a +/-1px difference in block-position and block-size of the line, inside the form-field. This patch changes the test to use the Ahem font with a font-size of 30px, which should have a whole-pixel-valued central as well as ideographic baseline; so no pixel-snapping should be necessary, and the input element's size should be be consistent, just as the test expects it to be. This patch also makes one non-functional change, to explicitly declare the charset as UTF-8, per WPT best-practices from http://web-platform-tests.org/writing-tests/general-guidelines.html#character-encoding Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D173191
