- Mono Windows Builds don't produce full log callstacks when generating logs

- UI elements with text gets bigger and grey when Player window is moved to another screen with different resolution
- System name accepts multiline text but crops it on confirmation, duplicates input, and shrinks the field when empty
- UI element scale and position are wrong in project build when DRS is changed with HDR and Software Dynamic Resolution enabled
Resolution Note (2022.1.X):
This behavior is by design. In the documentation we have "This function is called before the imported Prefab is created in the Library folder and before it is written to disk" => the imported Prefab that is saved in Library folder contains all the changes made in OnPostprocessPrefab, but the original asset remains unchanged.
Prefab Mode (isolation) displays the prefab asset as it is the Assets folder which doesn't contain the changes made by OnPostprocessPrefab
