Apparently LayerShellQt::Window::setExclusiveZone doesn't follow QT_SCALE_FACTOR.

We can wait for a fix in layer-shell-qt, or we can add a workaround, but if we add a workaround, it'll cause the inverse problem when the original issue is fixed.

There are more issues: any applications like lxqt-leave or qterminal -d don't scale at all if launched by shortcut, as do most xwayland windows too (element looks ok, gimp not).
Using wdisplays or kanshi for setting the scale factor has no issues at all.

That's how it should be done on Wayland. QT_SCALE_FACTOR works fine only on X11. I'm not saying that we should disable it in LXQt Session Settings under Wayland, but adding a tooltip may be a good idea (also because of lxqt/lxqt-session#541 (comment)).
