hidpi: Scale fonts on wayland

On X11 we don't need to scale up fonts because font scaling is already handled
by clutter based xft-dpi. On wayland we need to scale fonts by ourselves so
introduce a scale-fonts property on the theme-context and set it to true on
wayland.

I suppose we can't set the resolution on the clutter backend instead?

On X11 we don't need to scale up fonts because font scaling is already handled
by clutter based xft-dpi. On wayland we need to set the resolution by ourselves
so do that when the scale factor changes.
