[Qt-creator] Font size in Qt Creator 4.5.1 in Wayland

I don't have a high DPI display, so not sure if we have the same
problem or not.

I just realized two things:

1. The official Qt installer didn't install the Wayland platform
plugin, so I think Creator must have been running under XWayland.
2. The issue is no longer present after logging out and then logging in
to the Wayland session again.

Cheers,
Timur
