LaTeX: contrarily to doc, ``div.topic_box-shadow`` if used with a single dimension only sets the x-offset, and y-offset remains nil

Describe the bug

Our docs say:

<prefix>_box-shadow is special in so far as it may be:
- the none keyword,
- or a single dimension (giving both x-offset and y-offset),
- or two dimensions (separated by a space),
- or two dimensions followed by the keyword inset.

but in case a single dimension is used only x-offset is set, the y-offset of the shadow remains nil.

How to Reproduce

latex_elements = {
    'sphinxsetup': 'div.topic_box-shadow=10pt',
}

and index.rst:

.. topic:: Title

   contents

then make latexpdf with Sphinx v5.1.0 or later. Then there is a 10pt wide "shadow" on the right but nothing below. Versions of Sphinx prior to v6.2.1 additionally have a strange shortening of the box width. Starting at v6.2.1 at least the lateral shadow is in margin as described in documentation.
