      Pending changes:

      • Find out UI scale factor of Window: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/87716/ for Windows 8.1 . No idea for Win7 yet, might have to check metrics before and after setting DPI awareness (see version 1 of that patch). Is this actually need; is there a point returning a DPR for a screen in case Windows does the scaling?

      Things to do:

      • Some machines fail to set DPI awareness: SetProcessDpiAwareness failed: "COM error 0x80070005 (Unknown error 0x0ffffffff80070005) (also observed in autotests when calling it repeatedly).

      Various oddities:

      • With a scale factor of 100%, setting DPI awareness to 0 does not have any effect. It defaults to 2.

      Done changes:
