TinyMCE line height for p tags has been reset

[danieltj]

It seems that after the WordPress 4.8 update, the TinyMCE update has meant that the line height within the editor has styling applied to it which makes the line height of text inherited. This causes the text to be very close together which makes it hard to read and write.

See screenshot for example. I think that Removing the inherit attribute and making the default line height 1.5em which spaces the lines out just nicely, much like it was before.

Note: I've tested this on different installs and can confirm this is a new issue in 4.8.

I'm happy to work on this, just need to setup the dev site! :)
