Render crisp images for HiDPI screens by default
Copying from the README: > `pdf-tools` version `1.1.0` release changed the default value of > `pdf-view-use-scaling` to `t` (previously, it was `nil`). This has > been done keeping in mind that most modern monitors are HiDPI > screens, so the default configuration should cater to this user. If > you are not using a HiDPI screen, you might have to change this > value to `nil` in your configuration. Closes: #133
