When Large Text accessiblity option is enabled on GNOME, the Network Status Text overflows. Fixes GNOME's text-scaling-factor by applying an inverse font-size on each monitor's panel box. This prevents panel indicators from overflowing when the Large Text accessibility setting scales em-based sizes beyond the panel's capacity, while leaving dropdown menus unaffected so they still respect the accessibility setting.

Compensate for GNOME's text-scaling-factor by applying an inverse
font-size on each monitor's panel box. This prevents panel indicators
from overflowing when the Large Text accessibility setting scales
em-based sizes beyond the panel's capacity, while leaving dropdown
menus unaffected so they still respect the accessibility setting.
