[GNC] Weird MacOS UI issue with windows cutoff on bottom and right

[John Ralls]

This problem was subsequently documented in https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798728 and https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5535. I've fixed the problem and uploaded a new dmg to SourceForge and Github:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/files/gnucash%20%28stable%29/4.13/Gnucash-Intel-4.13-2.dmg/download
https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/releases/download/4.13/Gnucash-Intel-4.13-2.dmg

The website's update scripts are broken so I can't update the download links or sha: The new one is 5aad49b682d38de25a192d8e77245654e044102adc3c228de0431b75f87a4a05. I've made a symlink on Sourceforge so that the old download link on the website will download the new dmg.

Regards,
John Ralls

The Interest Payment popup in Reconcile is cut off in a similar way.
