Bug Description

# Impact

When running gnome-shell in a nested compositor, it's not possible to test fractional scaling toggling by using g-c-c

# Test case

Run:
  env XDG_RUNTIME_PATH=/tmp/g-s-runtime HOME=/tmp/g-s-home dbus-run-session \
   gnome-shell --nested --wayland --unsafe-mode

1. In the nested session run settings and go to display settings.
2. Enabling fractional scaling should work:
   fractional values should be show once picking a valid resolution such as 1600x1920
3. Toggling it back should work too.

# Regression potential

Fractional scaling can be enabled when not supported
