large windows on android will cause out-of-memory problems

[Antoine Martin]

There are a number of things we can do here, some easier than others.

• do not request window damage data for off-screen regions. We can then make the local window buffer no bigger than the android device screen which should allow us many windows before we hit the oom.
• scale windows down. this may also be a nice feature associated with pinch to zoom in/out
• combining the two features above is probably quite hard
