System Information
Operating system: Windows 10

Blender Version
Broken: 2.92

Short description of error
Using sequence_editor.sequences.new_movie() does not set scale_x and scale_y for imported strip (they just default to 1 each), and there is currently no way to even detect what these values should be manually...

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Make sure your project is at a higher resolution than the video you intend to load.
Run the following code in the python console:

bpy.context.scene.sequence_editor.sequences.new_movie(name='test', filepath='D://test.mp4', channel=1, frame_start=1)

(of course, change the filepath to an actual location for a file)

This feature wasn't implemented for python API functions. There are more differences between what these functions do and what operators do.
I can add fit method as non mandatory argument as it is reasonable to have it for loading files.

Meanwhile you can use operator (at least in 2.93 image resolution is available after adding new strips):
https://docs.blender.org/api/master/bpy.ops.sequencer.html?highlight=strip_transform_fit#bpy.ops.sequencer.strip_transform_fit

It's not a bug really, but I will confirm it as such, otherwise I would probably forget about this or never get to it.
