             MythDisplay: Assume 'square pixels' for default display aspect
 ratio
 calculation

 - the default (for new installations) now assumes display pixels are
 square (i.e. have an aspect ratio of 1) - which means we can calculate
 the display aspect ratio from the resolution (which was previously a
 fallback).
 - behaviour for existing installations will be unchanged
 - square pixels are now the norm for the vast majority of displays and
 using the screen resolution to calculate the aspect ratio avoids small
 rounding errors from using the EDID and incorrect aspect ratios from
 broken/misleading EDIDs.
