gdk_x11_display_set_window_scale() affects the interpretation of the
Xft/DPI XSETTING - it is substituted inside GDK with the value of
Gdk/UnscaledDPI xsetting. However, this change is not propagated to
GTK+ and from GTK+ back to gdk_screen_set_resolution() until the
main loop is run.
Fix this by handling the screen resolution directly in gdk/x11.
This requires duplication of code between GDK and GTK+ since we still
have to handle DPI in GTK+ in the case that GdkSettings:gtk-xft-dpi
is set by the application.
