+        Web Inspector: Elements: selection shouldn't be dimmed by shadow trees

+        * UserInterface/Views/DOMTreeOutline.css:
+        (.tree-outline.dom li .selection-area):
+        (.tree-outline.dom li > span): Added.
+        Don't force the `.selection-area` to be behind (`z-index: -1;`) the rest of the content, as
+        that also puts it behind any `background-color`. Instead, we should make all the content in
+        every `WI.DOMTreeElement` be above (`z-index: 1;`) the rest of the content, including the
+        `.selection-area` and any parent's `background-color`.
