Resolves #4223
WmfImagePlugin can load both WMF and EMF files. When loading WMFs, it sets the DPI to 72. This is an arbitrary number, because WMFs are like SVGs - they don't have an intrinsic DPI, and can be scaled to any resolution. The Python code just tells the C code what size is required.
This PR suggests that after opening an WMF file, but not an EMF, the following code be used to set the DPI to 144, for example, by adding a
dpi
argument to WmfImagePluginload
