[Bug 1918249] [NEW] Icons in folder pane don't scale for hidpi, breaks rendering

[ts]

Public bug reported:

Ever since the update to 78.7.1 (64-bit) Thunderbird attempts at showing
icons next to the folders in the folder pane. Hidpi settings cause the
font to scale, but the icons don't scale (at the same level? at all?).
This entirely breaks the rendering of the folder pane on high resolution
displays with downscaled fonts.

Screenshot attached.

I expect Thunderbird to show a neat folder pane

It doesn't, rendering is broken due to failed scaling of the icons
