Fix PHPOffice#3557. Borders around merged cells are not handled correctly for Mpdf. Although a perfectly acceptable workaround is suggested in the issue, it would be better if things just worked without the workaround. Html and Dompdf work with the existing code. As it turns out, Tcpdf does not work, but for a different reason than Mpdf. Mpdf was not working because Mpdf does not honor the `!important` attribute in Css. We can get it working almost perfectly by suppressing `border*:none`; the exception is fairly Byzantine, and I'll be glad to discuss the matter should anyone report a problem with it. At any rate, it's not working now in the exception case, so we won't be any worse off. Tcpdf was not working because the merging of attributes happened only when `useInlineCss` was not being used, but Tcpdf does use it. Merging of border attributes is now added for useInlineCss.
