HiDPI in monocle

[Jim Graham]

Screen.getPlatformScale() is the scaling from "FX pixels" to the pixels 
that the platform uses for events and window coordinates. 
Screen.getRenderScale() is the recommended scale for rendering - 
typically "ceil(platformScale)".

There is also Window.getOutputScale() which defaults to 
getPlatformScale().  When rendering a scene we render at the render 
scale and then blit it to the size indicated by the output scale.  When 
"renderscale = ceil(platformScale)", as it does on Windows, we may be 
rendering at 200% for a window that is at 150% on the screen, so the 
rendering happens at an integer pixel scale and then we get the size on 
the screen appropriate for what the Windows UI guidelines suggest.
