fonts: size fonts using the scaling factor when output scaling is enabled

Browse source 
This extends the new ‘dpi-aware’ option with a new default value,
‘auto’.

When set to ‘auto’, fonts are sized using monitors’ DPI when output
scaling is disabled. When output scaling is enabled, fonts are instead
sized using the scaling factor.

The reasoning here is that a user that has enabled output scaling is
obviously *not* relying on DPI scaling.

Output scaling can also be a way to compensate for different viewing
distances, in which case we do *not* want to break that by using DPI
scaling.

Users can still force DPI-only font sizing by setting ‘dpi-aware=yes’,
or disable it completely by setting ‘dpi-aware=no’.

* **bold-text-in-bright** option to `foot.ini`. When enabled, bold
text is rendered in a brighter color
(https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/199).
* **dpi-aware** option to `foot.ini`. The default, **enabled**,
implements foot's old font sizing behavior. But, when **disabled**,
foot will ignore the monitors' DPI and instead size fonts using the
scale factor alone (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/206).
* **dpi-aware** option to `foot.ini`. The default, `auto`, sizes fonts
using the monitor’s DPI when output scaling has been
**disabled**. If output scaling has been **enabled**, fonts are
sized using the scaling factor. DPI-only font sizing can be forced
by setting `dpi-aware=yes`. Setting `dpi-aware=no` forces font
sizing to be based on the scaling factor.
