SCSS Language Improvements

The problem

Have you ever noticed that some properties in your SCSS files are oddly-colored by your syntax highlighter?

This small extension solves that issue.

Why does this happen in the first place?

The words "content" "cursor" "filter" "font" and "mask" are all words that have been identified as selectors (https://github.com/atom/language-css/blob/master/grammars/css.cson#L2056) and property names (https://github.com/atom/language-css/blob/master/grammars/css.cson#L1488).

Why isn't this in the real language pack?

VSCode takes its SASS language definition directionly from the Atom language definition. There is an open issue here discussing the issue. My fix fails the tests that run against that extension, but it seems only to be returning scope definitions the tests don't expect. I haven't found any unexpected issues in my own development.

How does it work?

This code change targets specifically those problematic words. This plugin first considers them property names by default, but once they're followed by a curly brace, pseudo-element or pseudo-selector, they resolve to selectors.
