Description
It looks like this plugin [tries](https://github.com/MadLittleMods/postcss-increase-specificity/blob/f952606dca9ec9bd76ebc27065417e0c8c5c2824/index.js#L16) not to break `html` selectors, but it doesn't handle more complex selectors containing `html`.
Test case:
**Input:**
```css
html[data-whatintent=keyboard] .button:focus {}
```
**Actual output:**
```css
:not(#\9):not(#\9):not(#\9) html[data-whatintent=keyboard] .button:focus {}
```
These styles never end up being applied because `html` has no parent element
**Expected output:**
```css
html[data-whatintent=keyboard]:not(#\9):not(#\9):not(#\9) .button:focus {}
```
It should append stackableRoot to the root selector, instead of prepending

Research direction
Start in index.js around line 16, where root selectors are handled, and reproduce the issue with the provided html[data-whatintent=keyboard] selector. Confirm that the root element remains valid and that the output matches the expected selector, with stackableRoot appended rather than prepended.
