Support fractional scaling on linux

Reported by parrenin...@gmail.com, Nov 23 2017 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. On ubuntu 17.10, activate fractional scaling (experimental feature)
2. Use e.g. a 150% scaling
3. launch chromium

What is the expected behavior?
The fonts should scale up and look clear, as is the case for gtk applications

What went wrong?
The fonts look blurry.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 62.0  Channel: n/a
OS Version: ubuntu 17.10

"We Tried checking the issue on chrome version 62.0.3202.89 using Ubuntu 14.04, as fractional scaling was not found in chrome://flags we could not check the issue.

@Reporter: Could you please mention the flag which is to be run in terminal in order to launch chromium.

Thanks!"

This is not a chromium setting, this is a gnome setting, which is experimental right now (but should be mainstream in the next gnome 3.28).
Please check with ubuntu 17.10.

I'm not familiar with this experimental fractional scaling. Is there a documentation / website for this?
