The srcset picker already normalized every candidate to a pixel density
(x descriptor, or w / source-size) to choose one, then threw the density
away, so layout sized the image from the file's raw pixels. Every 2x
responsive asset occupied twice its design size.
Return the picked candidate's density alongside its URL (img srcset,
data-srcset, and picture source paths alike) and divide the fetched
intrinsic dimensions by it, so layout sees CSS px.
Verified: srcset "x.png 2x" of a 648px file lays out at 324 CSS px and
"648w" with sizes=300px at 300, while a bare src stays at raw size; no
regressions on the image-heavy spot set (a bbc delta traced to homepage
content drift against a days-old baseline, 8.0 vs 7.8 percent when
recaptured same-time); obstacle course 33/33.
