Comment 6 for bug 1669020

I started out with wxSYS_SYSTEM_FONT size - 2, but then we don’t have any guarantee that it will fit in the circle. (Note that we decrease the size yet again if the number is 3 digits.)

I agree that I don’t like hard-coding any sizes, but this seemed like a reasonable place for it.
