Gtk: Consider font dpi when calculating device scale factor
Gtk2 did not have a global window scaling setting (so the only way to scale up widgets was with a custom theme). However, it did allow font scaling with gdk-xft-dpi (backed by XSetting Xft/DPI). Gtk3 adds (non-fractional) global window scaling with gdk-window-scaling-factor (XSetting Gdk/WindowScalingFactor). To ensure that fonts were not scaled up twice (once from gdk-window-scaling-factor and once from gdk-xft-dpi), a new setting was added in [1] that overrides gdk-xft-dpi: gdk-unscaled-dpi (XSetting Gdk/UnscaledDPI). gdk-xft-dpi was kept around for compatibility with apps like Chromium that still need it. When modifying these settings, an invariant should be maintained: gdk-xft-dpi = gtk-window-scaling-factor * gdk-unscaled-dpi. Chromium should have been able to keep using gdk-xft-dpi, but this invariant is violated when changing the settings using gnome-tweak-tool, where I have gdk-window-scaling-factor = 2, gdk-unscaled-dpi = 98304, and gdk-xft-dpi = 98304 (gdk-xft-dpi should be 196608). [2] changed Gtk builds to use the window scaling factor, which is incorrect because it did not consider font scaling, making fractional scaling impossible. This CL takes gdk-unscaled-dpi into the calculation as well, and continues to fallback on using gdk-xft-dpi if the other variables are unavailable, which can happen on Gtk2.
