bug#9949: 24.0.91; window-width function does not take text-scale-mode-amount into account

You really should leave this job to the display-engine.  Doing your
calculations based on window-width means you'd have to add a function to
`window-configuration-change-hook' and/or `window-size-change-functions'
and recalculate the position of your stamps when a window changes size.
Moreover, a solution based on window-width will fail when you display
the same buffer in two windows of different width.  And another benefit
of using :align-to would be the additional experience whether it does
its job as expected.
