video: change --video-zoom behavior
Use the scaled video size (i.e. as shown on the window) as reference for zoom. This is the easiest way to fix different width/height scale factors as they happen when zooming video with a pixel aspect ratio other than 1:1. Also fix the unscaled mode, so that it 1. doesn't scale even with --video-zoom, and 2. doesn't scale by small amounts when the video is cropped by making the window smaller than the video.
