Minecraft uses launcher profile resolution instead of overrideWidth and overrideHeight when toggling fullscreen mode

Expected behavior

When I go into fullscreen mode and back, I thought my overrideWidth and overrideHeight would stay.

Actual behavior

Instead, Minecraft's windows size went to the resolution set in the launcher profiles.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set an overrideWidth and overrideHeight in the options.txt file found in your game directory

  2. Set a resolution different from the one you put in the overrideSizes in the profile editor.

  3. Launch the game using the profile you put the resolution into.

  4. When the game is loaded and the "Title Screen" or "Menu" shows up, you can either:

    1. Press the keyboard shortcut for "Toggle Fullscreen" to toggle fullscreen mode (default F11). Then press it again to exit fullscreen mode.
      or

    2. Go to "Options...", "Video Settings". Then set fullscreen to "ON" to toggle fullscreen mode.. Then set fullscreen to "OFF" to exit fullscreen mode.

As soon as you exit fullscreen, your game resolution will be the one you put in your launcher profile

This is still happening in the current versions (1.8 and 1.8.1), but I actually prefer this as a feature!

This doesn't bother me much, but it just seems weird due to the quirky behavior.

I've been using it as a feature ever since. I just confirmed it still exists on 1.10.2.

Does this occur in the latest release? (currently 1.14.4)
