Fixes an accessibility issue on body-medium and body-small line heights. According to criterion 1.4.12 of WCAG 2.1, line height (line spacing) must be least 1.5 times the font size. To meet the criterion, body-medium line height is set to 22px (1.375rem) and body-small line height is set to 18px (1.125rem).
