Create a way to increase the User Interface font size.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I just installed LightZone on my MacBookPro 11,3 2014 laptop which has a retina display. I'm running LinuxMint 21.1 with my display running at 2880 x 1600. I also use KDE Plasma v5.24 as the desktop environment. The font is very small and very difficult to read. I don't see any way to increase the user interface or font size to make the UI readable.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see a preference added to the preferences dialog to allow me to change the UI font size.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Make the User Interface font size use the default font and size set in the System Setting dialog for the desktop environment.

LightZone UI on LinuxMint KDE

@mdking117 Would you try adding sun.java2d.uiScale option in /usr/bin/lightzone? I know that this will scale the whole UI, but I guess it works better than just increasing the font size.

  -Djava.library.path=${pkglibexecdir} \
  -Dfile.encoding=UTF8 \
+ -Dsun.java2d.uiScale=2.0 \
  com.lightcrafts.platform.linux.LinuxLauncher ${file} ${@} )

Sorry for the late reply and having no time to implement the font resizing UI.
