Support changing text size by scroll-wheel #171

Gargoyle doesn’t have a configuration GUI, but perhaps implementing the 
following feature would reduce the need somewhat?

Many modern applications support changing the font size by ‘Ctrl + 
Mousewheel’ (up to increase the font size, down to decrease it). It would be 
nice if Gargoyle too would support this. Implementation note: As Gargoyle uses 
two fonts, both should be increased with the same *percentage value* (not point 
size).

In addition to the font sizes, the baseline and leading values will also need 
to be scaled.

I tested scaling each value by a fixed percentage - 10%, 50%, and 100% - and 
the result was better than expected. I had thought hand-tuned values would be 
required at any given step but that seems not to be the case.

Not sure when I will implement this but I agree that it would be very cool.
