This is an extended version of #242 (which I closed by accident with a false push).
It improves the N&N entry of the original PR:

  • Properly places the N&N in platform instead of JDT
  • Improves the description
  • Formats the code
  • Replaces the screenshots to show an actual difference in rendering sharpness (I am not convinced the new ones fit best, but I am also not sure how to better visualize the improvement)

It also adds information about the according SWT API enhancement that are used by the platform to enabled the monitor-specific UI rescaling mechanism. The news entries link to each other.
