Description

https://www.w3.org/TR/css3-values/#relative-length

- [ ] `ch`
- [ ] `rem`
- [ ] `vw`/`vh`
- [ ] `vmin`/`vmax`
- [ ] `Q`

Looks like no one supports CSS4 `cap`, `ic`, `lh`, `rlh`, `vi`, `vb` yet, so we will ignore them too.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked W3C CSS Values specification and tracing how resvg currently handles length units. Check each listed unit—ch, rem, vw/vh, vmin/vmax, and Q—and confirm that the completed behavior matches the specification; the issue does not name a source file or test to run.
