StickyScroll separator from editor not visible in Monokai theme

[crystalfp]

Type: Bug

StickyScroll separator from editor is not visible on screen under the code using Monokai theme.

StickyScroll is a great feature, but sometimes confound, because what it shows seems part of the code below it. For example:

Here the test "… dd16" seems empty on the screen, the black separator line is barely visible on my screen under the code. It is more visible on the right side outside the code, where I don't look during coding. Note instead that the line is clearly visible in the above screenshot.

To reproduce, load a .ts file, enable the Monokai theme, scroll the code an see StickyScroll seems part of the code below it.

Maybe just changing the line style into the style of the vertical ones (bottom-left in the screenshot) that mark tab stops is sufficient.

Thanks for considering.

Today this uses --vscode-scrollbar-shadow but it should be using a dedicated color that can be customized (by each theme and users)
