Editorial update to target size (minimum) exceptions (#3189)
* use "except when" to match the existing target size (enhanced) (rather than "except where") * structure the exceptions as definition list, in line with target size (enhanced) and all other cases in WCAG where we list things like this in normative SC wording * <s>change the `.` full stop to a `;` semicolon in the "Equivalent" description (as it's not the last definition)</s> (already now addressed by #2668) See #3086 (comment)

<p class="note">Targets that allow for values to be selected spatially based on position within the target are considered one target for the purpose of the success criterion. Examples include sliders, color pickers displaying a gradient of colors, or editable areas where you position the cursor.</p>

<p class="note">For inline targets the line-height should be interpreted as perpendicular to the flow of text. For example, in a language displayed vertically, the line-height would be horizontal.</p>
