[EPUB] Use native solution to change the font size instead of Readium CSS

[mickael-menu]

Changing the font size with Readium CSS is limited because if the publication has absolute font sizes then enabling advanced options is necessary: basically disabling publisher's defaults.

A possible workaround would be to use native solutions when available since Readium CSS is platform-agnostic.

text-size-adjust is promising and seems to be available on both iOS and Android: https://caniuse.com/?search=text-size-adjust

On Android, this could be an option:

@mickael-menu do we have a solution for this issue? It breaks the font size change for a lot of books on Android.

Not yet, I don't see myself implementing it before tackling the Presentation Settings for EPUB. But if you want you can try out the techniques I put in the other comment and see if it helps: #5 (comment)

Yes I'm trying those techniques.
