Custom property sets invalid syntax in 7.0.15

See original GitHub issue

Latest release fixed custom properties, but broke unofficial custom property sets support.

111 tests in stylelint related to custom property sets are broken because of syntax error for constructions like this:

:root { --custom-property-set: {} }

:root {
 --x { color: pink; } ; 
 --y { color: red; };
 }

Also, I believe, postcss-apply is now broken as well. It has more than 400 000 dowloads per week. Though @apply was rejected, and it’ll never be a standard syntax.

Technically, PostCSS not doing anything wrong. I’m happy to remove broken tests from stylelint, as it’s non-standard syntax.

Just wanted to bring your attention to this situation.
