trop[bot] 45bc6435ce chore: remove window enlargement revert patch (#50844)
* chore: remove window enlargement revert patch

Chromium removed the `window_enlargement_` system from
DesktopWindowTreeHostWin (1771dbae), which was a workaround for an AMD
driver bug from 2013 (crbug.com/286609) where translucent HWNDs smaller
than 64x64 caused graphical glitches. Chromium confirmed this is no
longer needed and shipped the removal.

This removes the revert patch and all Electron-side code that depended
on the `kEnableTransparentHwndEnlargement` feature flag, including the
`GetExpandedWindowSize` helper and max size constraint expansion in
`NativeWindow::GetContentMaximumSize`.

* test: remove obsolete <64x64 transparent window test

The test was added in 2018 (#12904) to verify the AMD driver
workaround that artificially enlarged translucent HWNDs smaller than
64x64 (crbug.com/286609). The workaround set the real HWND to 64x64
and subtracted a stored window_enlargement_ from every client/window
bounds query, so getContentSize() reported the originally-requested
size even though the actual HWND was larger.

With both the Chromium window_enlargement_ system and Electron's
GetExpandedWindowSize gone, setContentSize on a transparent
thickFrame window calls SetWindowPos directly. WS_THICKFRAME windows
are subject to DefWindowProc's MINMAXINFO.ptMinTrackSize clamp on
programmatic resizes (Chromium's OnGetMinMaxInfo ends with
SetMsgHandled(FALSE), so DefWindowProc overwrites the zeroed
min-track with system defaults), which on Windows Server 2025
floors at 32x39 — hence the failing [32, 39] vs [30, 30].

The removed feature_list.cc comment explicitly flagged this test as
the blocker for retiring kEnableTransparentHwndEnlargement, so
delete it alongside the workaround it was validating.
