Scrollbar width non-standard

[tomotvos]

Describe the problem

The width of the scroll bar in the editor panel is too narrow.

To reproduce

1. Edit a sketch with more than a full screen of lines

Scroll bar appears roughly half the width it should be.

Here you can see it compared against the width of the Chrome browser scrollbar:

Expected behavior

The scroll bar should be the standard size for each platform

The Theia developers set this non-standard width without providing any justification for doing so:

eclipse-theia/theia#852

The scrollbar width is intended to be configurable, but unfortunately the non-standard width was configured in such a way that causes that configuration to be ignored:

eclipse-theia/theia#11732

My hope is that the bug can be resolved in Theia. If that ends up not being possible, I think it will be important for Arduino to investigate whether there is a way to patch it from the Arduino IDE codebase and ideally to also set the default width in Arduino IDE to the same width as the scrollbar in every non-Theia application ever made.

The fix for eclipse-theia/theia#11732 was released in Theia 1.33.0. It was introduced into this project via #2027

So the resolution of this defect is now be possible simply by setting the default values of the editor.scrollbar.horizontalScrollbarSize and editor.scrollbar.verticalScrollbarSize settings to 14
