For #7921, where Live Preview highlight is out of place when using with brackets.io site.

Tested with brackets.io/index.html, brackets.io/contribute.html, and the (German) Getting Started page.

I'm testing the root Getting Started page. It looks good when page is less than max width:

live-highlight1

But wider than max width does not offset highlight correctly:

live-highlight2

Wow, that one was tough!
I found a fix which fixes both cases.

The issue was that, as soon as <body> is not position: static, every child with position: absolute (like our highlight) is relative to the body.

This fixes the Getting started page, but the brackets.io/contribute.html page used in the recipe of #7921 is broken when scrolling. It's weird that element highlights in the header-wrapper fixed header at the top scroll when they shouldn't and element highlights in the rest of the page do not scroll when they should.

Somehow works now. Fingers crossed.

I want to consider taking this for Brackets 1.0. Need to make sure all problems are fixed and we test it enough to be assured that risk is low.

One note about testing:
We should try different position values (static, relative, absolute, fixed) for both body and the highlighted element, and various top/bottom/left/right/margin values.
