VSCode extension does not respect folder settings! about vscode-stylelint HOT 2 OPEN

I ran into a similar issue with a multi-root workspace. It looks like this extension may not have been updated to support the multi-root workspace APIs:

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/multi-root-workspaces

Here is the specific documentation on the changes required for language servers:

https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/Adopting-Multi-Root-Workspace-APIs#language-client--language-server

The fallback logic appears to be that it will treat the first folder/package in the workspace as the "root", which breaks relative paths used in other packages within the workspace. The package in my workspace using this extension is not the first, so the relative paths in the .vscode/settings.json file and my .stylelintrc.json attempt to resolve against the first package folder and throw an exception, breaking all style linting.

I filed a similar bug with another extension and just in case it's not obvious, I have 3 folders in my workspace. I'm working in web-platform and the setting is for that folder, but it's being applied to marketing-web, which is a different folder and it doesn't have the override! So the root stylelintrc.js should be found.
