DevBox: Windows App Default to High-DPI Mode

Consider updating the Windows App to automatically detect when its being used on a high-DPI display and automatically enable High-DPI Resolution mode before connecting to the DevBox.

 

Until recently, I didn't know the option in the Advanced menu existed and had just accepted that the Remote DevBox text was blurry. However, once enabling the High-DPI mode the text was nearly crystal clear! A much better experience. This indicates a discoverability issue.

 

If defaulting it to on may impact latency, consider at least warning the user the first time they connect that the option is available for them to use.
