Previously, there had to be two splash images to deal with different
DPI settings and hiDPI screens. The larger version was simply downscaled
in an external program for the small one. When up-scaled, the images
would look rather badly.
We now handle scaling completely at runtime. The results should look
pretty much identical for most cases. When up-scaled it should look
better though.
New bundled splash images should have a width of 1000px or more (used to
be 1002px).
