* remove root option ([39ad4f8](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/less-loader/commit/39ad4f8))


### BREAKING CHANGES

* If you've already configured your `resolve.alias` with a `.less` extension, you can now remove that wrong extension.
* The root option was never documented, so it's very unlikely that this is actually a breaking change. However, since the option was removed, we need to flag this as breaking.
* **dependencies:** Require webpack 2 as peer dependency
* **source-maps:** Since the map is now passed as an object to the next loader, this could potentially break if another loader than the css-loader is used. The css-loader accepts both.
