IMG title text isn't scaled properly in tooltips

Project Member Reported by grt@chromium.org, Aug 23

Issue description

70.0.3529.3 (Official Build) canary (64-bit) (cohort: Clang-64)

- find a Windows lappy with a HiDPI display scaled to 200%
- attach an external display at 100% and configure Windows to make the external the primary display
- log out and log in again so that Windows is happy with everything being at 100% on the main/external display
- put the machine to sleep (but don't log out)
- disconnect the external display
- wake it back up
- visit https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_image_test
- give the img tag a title (e.g., <img src="smiley.gif" title="This is a very tiny title" alt="Smiley face" width="42" height="42">).
- hover over it

This sequence of events (going from 100% to 200% without logging out) is horribly confusing for Windows in general. Chrome is getting better and better at handling it. These hover tooltips are one of the last things I've noticed that make the transition painful.

The attached image may look just fine, but try zooming out to 50% to see what it really looks like on a HiDPI display at 200%. Yup, the tiny text is very tiny.
