Allow specifying the installer size in 'em' or 'ex' units
The WizardDefaultWidth and WizardDefaultHeight configuration settings always expected pixel values. This made the installer look somewhat awkward on high DPI displays, in which case the ratio between the font size and the installer window size was such that the fonts looked very big. Let's fix this by allowing to specify the width/height of the installer using units which are defined in terms of the font size, namely 'em' ("The width of the letter M") and 'ex' ("The width of the letter x"). 'px' is supported as well and means the same thing as not specifying any unit at all: the given size is defined in pixels. We choose to *not* use the font width for 'em' and 'ex' to be consistent with what the Qt CSS parser does (see src/gui/text/qcssparser.cpp), which adheres to what the W3C document at https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/css2em.htm describes.
