Bug Description

As part of our accessibility review, we are going to increase the base font size from 14px to 16px. In addition, there are some elements that do not yet have font size variables. They will be changed to allow for flexibility.

We'll also need to review the line height at the same time and the hover background and whether and if so where we are going to keep it. UX will be needed for that.

All these changes are to be looked at alongside the WCAG 2.1 guidelines after 20.10.

Should be mostly complete. We'll need to make decisions for each of them from an accessibility and UX perspective.

Bug 1845053 Font size and size variable

Base font has been increased to 16px, and as a result, variables
have had to be recalculated.

Max browser width has been increased to 1440px to allow the
larger font to have more characters in a line.

As a part of accessibility, headings H1-H6 have had to be rejigged.
Note that for elements such as popup/modals, the heading restarts
at H1 again as advised by Julius.

Page heading is H1, block heading is H2, everything else should be
H3. Trying to attempt to reserve H4-H6 for user content, but it is
still existing in some places as some things can't be changed.

Attachment markups have been unified and added to styleguide.

Removed H3/H4 from fieldset legends.
