Resolution KW not working properly on OSX with retina GLMakie.jl

[ndinsmore]

If I use the code:

using AbstractPlotting, GLMakie
scene=Scene(resolution = AbstractPlotting.primary_resolution())
scene

I do not get a window that fills the whole screen as seen in the image below.
In this case AbstractPlotting.primary_resolution() = (2880,1600).
Furthermore, my screen resolution is set at 1920 x 1200, so there is already some oddity there.

Beyond that, there is some significant performance degradation when I have a window open.

For OSX, i haven't implemented the calls to get the primary resolution - which i started to do without GLFW present so it can be queried inside AbstractPlotting without any backend loaded. Since this has been troublesome also for the web backends, we may want to move this back into the backends, since that would make it much easier.

Would those calls make the window draw smaller than it should? Because the screen resolution is only set to 1960 x 1200. So I still am trying to figure out how that would make GLMakie draw a Scene that is bigger that the screen, as smaller than the screen.

Trying to dig deeper, I ran the tests for both CairoMakie and GLMakie.
CairoMakie passed all tests.
GLMakie did not:
ERROR: LoadError: Some tests did not pass: 52 passed, 57 failed, 8 errored, 0 broken.
All the tests ran but failed at the image comparison.
I am hoping that this is all stemming from a root issue.
Is there a way to run the test and keep the image assets of the failed test. I thought that if I dig through those I might beable to figure out what the common issue is.

Fixed by #2544 in Makie 0.20 (and to a lesser degree beforehand)
