I am running Emacs version 27 (building from master) and recently
noticed that my images no longer scales using org-image-actual-width.
I then read that ImageMagick support is no longer enabled by default as
there is a new "native" resizing method built-in to Emacs.
As seen in the news for on Emacs version 27 (master branch):

I then inspected the code of org-mode and noticed there is an expression
in the cond that figures out how to scale, e.g.:
> ((not (image-type-available-p 'imagemagick)) nil)
I haven't looked into yet how the scaling is done, but I know some other
modes such as image-mode had support for using the new method.
I think it would be great to support the native scaling option as well
when available. Since opting in to imagemagick will be Emacs wide and
then we loose the benefit of the new functionality.
Best regards,

I committed a fix to the master branch. I think the way was clear. But
testing is welcome as always.
Thanks, Marco
