Public bug reported:

When viewing feeds that have large images, the images are not scaled
down to fit into the window like browsers typically do.

To reproduce:
- add feed like https://www.monkeyuser.com/feed.xml that has lots of large 
images
- make sure your liferea window isn't too wide (width of about 1000px should be 
good)
- view most any item in that feed (I was using the one dated Aug 2)
- see that the image extends beyond the content pane thus adding a horizontal 
scroll bar

I expected that the image width to be scaled to fit into current content
pane.  This was happening in a earlier version (Ubuntu 20.10 I believe)


I tried an old workaround from 
https://www.keypressure.com/blog/shrink-liferea-images/ that said to add the 
following to ~/.config/liferea/liferea.css

div.content img {
    max-width: 100%;
    height: auto;
}

That did not work.

I also tried adding the --debug-html to liferea to have it save the
generated html in ~/.cache/liferea/output.html and then viewed that in a
web browser (firefox).  The image was scaled as expected there (with or
without the above mentioned liferea.css change).  Furthermore, changing
the max-with to something like 50% the browser showed the change when
viewing the output.html file, but liferea always just displayed the
image at full size.
