Warning and error underlines appear behind text

[nhristova]

Description

The squiggly lines indicating errors and warnings appear very close (even behind) the text. I tried modifying the line height and that improves the appearance a bit. However, when I switch the theme to Visual Studio Dark, even with line height set to 0, the underline is not that close (attached images below). Switched fonts, that didn't change anything.
I was not able to find another setting to modify this distance. Is there a way to change it?
