bug#59285: 29.0.50; Setting default font as frame parameter upsets tab-bar display height

[James Ferguson <james@faff.org>]

Changing the selected frame 'default face size with "<family>-<size>"
results in a tab bar with a lot of vertical space padding,  It also
doesn't redisplay it properly with redrawing if you move the mouse over
the tab bar, or if you switch tabs.

As far as I can tell for the life of the frame.  This, I believe, is new
since 28.x.

I see it with `emacs -q`.

e.g.:

(tab-bar-mode)
(set-frame-parameter (selected-frame)
                     'font
                     (format "%s-18" (face-attribute 'default :family)))

Thanks!
