continued support for importing vanilla CSS files

[FND]

Importing .css files has been deprecated: sass/libsass#2613 (rationale in sass/libsass#2611)

We want to continue to support this (e.g. to bundle non-Sass libraries), so we should either create a custom importer or specify .css as an additional extension (preferably the former to bypass Sass processing).

[Michael Mifsud]

Not using additional extensions does not bypass sass processing. All extensions are parsed as Sass files.

Thanks for chiming in here, @xzyfer! Unfortunately, we're not quite sure yet what this actually means in practice: sass/libsass#2611 states that code importing vanilla CSS files "will not be portable" - but isn't CSS a subset of Sass anyway, so what might actually go wrong as a consequence of treating *.css as Sass modules?

We wouldn't want for faucet to depart from or even work against Sass norms, but we're uncertain what the right way is to proceed here.

For tracking purposes: sass/node-sass#2362

This is done with Release 1.0.0-rc.9 by switching from node-sass to sass.
