Bug Description

I updated all packages from the update branch and in the last week or two the pdfs on my desktop are displayed incorrectly and stretched out. It appears that I did not have the bug prior to the fix, but have it now that I have updated to the new package version.

Minor additional information:
- Also affects Ubuntu 20.10
- Stretching does not occur in the File Explorer Nautilus window, just the desktop preview.

A possible fix:
In https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/ShellExtensions/desktop-icons/-/blob/master/fileItem.js#L373 (or locally /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/desktop-icons@csoriano/fileItem.js):
Replace: `let containerWidth = (this._icon.allocation.x2 - this._icon.allocation.x1) * scaleFactor;`
with `let containerWidth = (this._icon.allocation.x2 - this._icon.allocation.x1);`

The scaleFactor here is unnecessary.

Tested on Ubuntu 20.04.1, with display scale 200%. Desktop thumbnails work fine after removing the scaleFactor multiplier as above.

Confirm htd95's fileItem.js fixes this for me on newly upgraded Ubuntu 20.04.2.
