SCSS mixin to support vh and vw units on all iOS Safari versions. Based on an idea by Patrick Burtchaell's: https://gist.github.com/pburtchaell/e702f441ba9b3f76f587
/**
* Fix for vw, vh, vmin, vmax on iOS 7.
* http://caniuse.com/#feat=viewport-units
*
* This fix works by replacing viewport units with px values on known screen sizes.
*
* iPhone 6 and 6 Plus cannot run iOS 7, so are not targeted by this fix.
* Target devices running iOS 8+ will incidentally execute the media query,
* but this will still produce the expected result; so this is not a problem.
