I didn't find any intention to make this value change in relation to any relevant font sizes, so I've simply converted this to the equivalent pixel value.
No visual changes (if used in Gutenberg, at least).

We could have made this the exact px equivalent (19.2px), but I've taken this opportunity to use a standard base-styles value (20px). Does this look ok @WordPress/gutenberg-design ?

What?
Removes the usage of
remunits in@wordpress/components.Why?
Our component system is not generally scaled based on rems, which means that sporadic usage of rems can cause unintended inconsistencies in other projects where 1rem is not 16px.
