[PATCH] cocoa: ask for highdpi surface in CreateWindowFrom

Display ends up taking only 1/4 of the screen area. It needs to call "setWantsBestResolutionOpenGLSurface:highdpi", like when creating a window the normal way.

Any updates on this? This directly impacts the use of https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5060 , which is marked as target-2.0.14.

Happy to work on the patch more if you'd like anything changed.
