Web IDE no longer highlighting changes in MRs

Summary

When viewing a MR in the Web IDE changes are no longer highlighted. Customer noted upon upgrade to 15.3.1 on their self hosted instance and I can replicate on gitlab.com

I've tested this in FF/Chrome/Safari on gitlab.com (Safari/chrome with a clear cache) and the issue presents.

This does not seem to occur on my personal aarch64 15.3.1 instance from quick testing

Steps to reproduce

  1. Head to any MR on a project
  2. Click the Code drop down and click on Open in Web IDE

Example Project

Quick sample MR here

What is the current bug behavior?

Changes are not highlighted in the Web IDE side by side diff view for MRs

What is the expected correct behavior?

Changes should be highlighted

Relevant logs and/or screenshots
