HiDPI XQuartz

Instructions
#: for example <code>brew cask install xquartz</code>.
# enable full screen mode in XQuartz
#: it doesn't work in non-root window mode.
# ssh -Snone -X z800.local
#: <code>-Snone</code> is important because session multiplexing doesn't work very well with X forwarding.
#: unfortunately we can't make this permanent, after this, you will be in high resolution full screen X, with a very tiny xterm.
# run whatever application from that xterm
#: you might need to force HiDPI mode for that application, but it should have all the pixels available.
# to get out of X, press CMD+Opt+A
#: unfortunately this turns off the X resolution.
