This optimisation disables relative paths when the output path is longer
than the input path - but the result of that is that the generated CSS
ends up pointing to URLs that are relative to the current directory
instead of being relative to the generated CSS file.
input: test-in/style.css
```
.foo { background-image: url("./local.png"); }
```
output: test-out/style.css
```
.foo { background-image: url("../test-in/local.png"); }
```
output: test-out/nested/path/style.css
```
.foo { background-image: url("test-in/local.png"); }
```

input: test-in/style.css
When writing to an output directory which is less than or equal to the depth of the input, the path to the file is relative to the output .css
output: test-out/style.css
When writing to an output directory which is deeper than the input, relativity is disabled, and the path is broken
output: test-out/nested/path/style.css
