Ignores the desktop scaling setting from Control Center. #13

Makes st not usable on a high DPI screen.

Super+c to open Control Center, navigate to Devices -> Displays.

Set the "Scale" option to anything except 100%, hit Apply.

Observe that st does not change the rendered font size.

Typical key shortcuts like Ctrl-+, Ctrl-Shift-+, also do not change the font size.

Thanks for the bug report @jessegranger . Currently there is no integration between gnome and st. I'll look into it.

To change the scale in X (not GNOME) apps, use the Xft.dpi setting. Described here: https://regolith-linux.org/docs/howto/override-xres/#example---update-the-ui-for-high-dpi-screens
