[Bug 1870259] [NEW] firefox fullscreen display glitches with hidpi scalingb

Public bug reported:

When I go on fullscreen on a video on Firefox with HIDPI scaling factors
more than 100%, I get odd behavior of the fullscreen video.  This
behavior is not seen on Chrome, or if the scaling factor is 100%.

Basically, it seems like there is some resizing of the video to a
smaller window in the upper left, and when I escape fullscreen,
sometimes the firefox window itself is scaled off the display.

At times, this glitches a few times and eventually resets, sometimes, it
stays this way.  It appears to have changed behavior multiple times over
the past few weeks of updates of various parts of the stack, and may
just be narrowed down for me now to something repeatable.  For instance
sometimes I could not trigger it until I pressed volume up or volume
down.  Now it appears to happen just waiting for a few seconds on the
running video.

This is on X11, and on focal with the latest updates as of today
2020-04-01.

Happy to debug more, not sure what information is useful.

thanks!
