Feedback: New layout for Markdown and Rich Text editor

In %16.0, we have introduced a new layout and UI for the Markdown and Rich Text editor, that is used for comments, descriptions, etc...

Why?

This change makes the editor UI more consistent, will help users more easily discover our new Rich Text Editor, and make switching between Markdown and Rich Text Editor more seamless. Additionally, this new design save space, which is going to be helpful with the growing number of options in the toolbar, and avoids wrapping of content in more cases than before.

It also fixes existing inconsistencies between the two editors (Markdown and Rich Text Editor), e.g. aligning the margin between buttons or the size of the editor window.
