Tables on Benefits detail pages no longer have margins

[laflannery]

Background

Another issue that seems to have resulted from the automated table migration (tables that were previously not using the <va-table> now are) is that there is no longer a margin between the tables. The standard <table> element using to had a margin of 2em on the top and bottom but now that is not present.

This issue (along with the along issues such as the missing table caption) was brought to our attention by Randi H: Slack thread. I did also ask in the DST slack channel if the fix to add margins would need to be done at the component level or at the template level and they said on the template, which would be something for our team to handle (assuming I'm understanding things correctly)

Description

On the benefits details pages, there are no margins between the tables so they are displaying very close together and this doesn't look very nice. An example page this can be seen on is the Disability compensation rates page. If you open the accordions, you can see the tables there are bunched together:

AC / Expected behavior

• Instances of <va-table> should have space between them
• Design Review
• Additional FE ticket is written to examine other all templates and determine if the fix done on Benefits detail pages needs to be made elsewhere
