[PATCH] avoid hard-coded assumptions in image scaling

[James N. V. Cash]

In image-compute-scaling-factor in images.el, it currently hard-codes
the assumption that the average character width is 10 pixels. Since
`frame-char-width` gives this information though, it seems like it's less
error-prone to use that function instead of assuming.
