I think you may leave ifdef here but set:
qputenv("QT_ENABLE_HIGHDPI_SCALING", "0");
if it's false as `QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR` is deprecated since qt 5.14.

QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=2 should double the fonts. This patch breaks that which
means we've broken the config UI.
On my system, when `QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR/QT_ENABLE_HIGHDPI_SCALING`
isn't disabled and both display scaling & font dpi scaling is enabled it
results in double scaling - all qt apps are unproportionately huge which
**makes ui broken without this patch**.
