Describe the bug
Inconsistent window sizing between monitors in dual-monitor setup with different resolutions on Gnome 3.38.2 Wayland on Fedora 33.
Modifying the environment variable before calling guake by prepending env GDK_BACKEND=x11 fixes the issue which points to an issue with the existing attempt at overriding the value of GDK_BACKEND in the code.

Expected behavior
Window size should be correct on both monitors.
Actual behavior
Window size is always the same regardless of the resolution of the monitor it's being displayed on. The position is also offset if monitors are not horizontally aligned from the top.
Monitor 0 (1080p)
Monitor 1 (1440p)
To Reproduce
- On a dual monitor setup with different monitor resolutions
- Run Gnome-shell on Wayland
- Open the terminal on monitor 1
- Close the terminal, and open it on monitor 2
