Mixins with compound "&" selectors make sourcemaps invalid

[hgmich]

Under a specific set of conditions, compound selectors using &, such as &.mod-enabled or &:after, cause the sourcemap generator to produce sourcemaps with negative column indices.

The conditions are:

• The rule must be a compound selector using the parent selector as above
• The rule must be in the root of a mixin
• The mixin must be included in the document at least 6 times

This popped up for me when gulp-sass switched to version 4.0 of node-sass, which pushed LibSass up to 3.4. Smallest reproducible test case I could make is available here.

Sample error:

Error: Invalid mapping: {"generated":{"line":1,"column":6},"source":"mixins.scss","original":{"line":3,"column":-4},"name":null}

A bisection of the test case revealed this issue was introduced in commit de83d30.

CCing in dlmanning/gulp-sass#577 so this issue is linked to that one.

Thanks for the test case, I can confirm the issue live from your repo with my sourcemap inspector.
