Works in wayland.

Yeah, for Plasma I allowed a user override, rather than just doing it on
platform as it was 90% fine. 

It's not so much about icons, but on X Qt would convert any setGeometry on
internal windows from user pixels to device pixels. 

We'd end up with 3 completely different scaling systems. 
 - Plasma scaling: resizing native pixel sizes to fonts
 - Qt's scaling: doing everything in normalised pixels 
 - Kwin's wayland scaling: effectively the same as Qt

All intertwined and conflicting.
Huge effort for a very minor bug. I would reject any patches that tried.

Only possible half-gap we could do is do a bodge making QStyle icon sizes
bigger (plasma scaling style) in the kwin case.
