Description
### Feature Description
Allow changing the UI scale of DMS, not just the font size
### Use Case
DMS in general appears to be smaller than applications themselves, so I would like a way to make DMS a little bigger without just changing the scale of everything else.
I know I can change the font scale, however that would make icons off-scale from the font size and things just look off. There are also issues with text wrapping and clipping that should probably be a separate issue.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue. Start by tracing the existing font-scale option for the Niri configuration, then determine the UI-scale behavior and verify that DMS can become larger without changing system-wide font or icon proportions.
