Add support for HD / Full HD screens - Wrong Resolutions and DPI

Description
Let's face it currently Xorg does not support HD / Full HD screens properly, it fails to calculate correctly the screen size resolution and also setting the DPI which is fixed to 96, those resulting in a unwatchable screen and extremely small display.
Basically now most of the screens are comming HD and Linux users are stuck with problems on setting the right DPI, tweeking applications or asking DE's developers for workarounds and tricks to fix this long-running issue. I know it's allot of coding but either is done or there will be no HD users on Linux.
Please consider this seriously, it's a headache also for gnome, kde, cinnamon, etc.
