Bug Description

SRU Justification:

[Impact]
The video playback under HiDPI display with scale factor 2 doesn't work well on Ubuntu 14.04.

[Test Case]
It is easy to reproduce the problem on non-HiDPI display by the following command.
`GDK_SCALE=2 totem /usr/share/example-content/Ubuntu_Free_Culture_Showcase/How\ fast.ogg`

There is no problem in Ubuntu 14.10 because the upstream's fixes are included.

[Regression Potential]
Backporting clutter-gtk upstream patches already in 14.10:
GtkClutterEmbed: Scale allocation by the scale factor
embed: Pass scaled size back to clutter
