Remove 1280x1000 scaling.

We already have 1280x960, which is the correct aspect ratio. This
means that when running at 1080p the windowboxing borders will be
slightly thicker, but if we're already showing borders anyway, it's
better to at least use the correct aspect ratio.

This fixes #460. Thanks to Doom_user for asking about this on

+// We used to have mode_squash_5x here as well, but it got removed.
+// 5x squashing gives 1280x1000, which is very close to the 4x stretched
+// 1280x960. The difference is that 1280x1000 is the wrong aspect ratio.
+// It was ultimately decided that it was better to use the right aspect
+// ratio and have slightly larger borders than to have slightly smaller
+// windowboxing borders. It also means that the aspect ratio is correct
+// when running at 1280x1024. See bug #460 for more details, or this
