You can't create a single cairo gradient that will automatically work
that way with any path, but you can certainly just call cairo_scale
after creating the path and before filling it in order to scale the
gradient to just the size you want.

You should be able to find code doing this within librsvg, mozilla, or
any other implementation of SVG that uses cairo, (since SVG provides
percentage-based gradients).

I hope that helps, and that you have fun with cairo!
