[Issue]: Unable to start streaming on devices with multiple HAL resolution and unlocked config_maxUiWidth

Describe the bug

By saying HAL resolution, I mean that can be found in dumpsys display:

    mSupportedModes=
      DisplayModeRecord{mMode={id=1, width=1096, height=2560, fps=60.000004, alternativeRefreshRates=[120.00001], supportedHdrTypes=[2, 3]}}
      DisplayModeRecord{mMode={id=2, width=1096, height=2560, fps=120.00001, alternativeRefreshRates=[60.000004], supportedHdrTypes=[2, 3]}}
      DisplayModeRecord{mMode={id=3, width=1644, height=3840, fps=60.000004, alternativeRefreshRates=[120.00001], supportedHdrTypes=[2, 3]}}
      DisplayModeRecord{mMode={id=4, width=1644, height=3840, fps=120.00001, alternativeRefreshRates=[60.000004], supportedHdrTypes=[2, 3]}}

The user can choose which resolution to use in Settings: https://pixel.gadgethacks.com/how-to/change-screen-resolution-your-google-pixel-pro-and-why-you-should-0385339/

With the lower resolution (1644x3840), Moonlight will not start streaming, it returns to the game list after a few display glitches (likely display mode change).

With the higher resolution, everything is OK.

Logcat supposes that the change of UI resolution invalidated the surface used for streaming. With config_maxUiWidth locked to 1096 (in stock ROM), changing the display mode won't change UI resolution.

Steps to reproduce

Use a device with multiple HAL resolutions and unlocked config_maxUiWidth (in this case, a Sony Xperia 1 V with system mods. Maybe also Pixel?)
Start Moonlight with the smaller display resolution
Start streaming with a large enough streaming resolution (e.g. 3840x2160)

Additional context

System mods used:

https://xdaforums.com/t/magisk-module-4k-display-resolution-enabler.4631369/ just removes the limit on config_maxUiWidth
or https://github.com/dantmnf/pdx234-resolution-unlock additionally with some trivial unrelated fixes
