4.4.189

Properly scale default skin font according to DPI (#1110)

Original fix introduced in 528d15 was not correct.
The problem is that `SystemParametersInfo` uses DPI that current session
started with.

We should use `SystemParametersInfoForDpi` (available since Win10 1607)
that returns properly scaled font size.

Fixes #1110
