camera photo samples may render viewfinder sideways on some hardware

[seanmcveigh]

All of the camera samples were written with OMAP hardware, which supports viewfinder rotation. The photo viewfinder samples may tend to render sideways on non-OMAP hardware.
The fix for this is to apply screen_set_window_property_iv(...., SCREEN_PROPERTY_ROTATION, ....); when the viewfinder window attaches.

This issue is here to remind me to revisit this when I get a chance. Heck -- any community takers?? :P

Maybe @PaulBernhardt has some time to take a look?

Probably not for a bit, I have three sample apps I need to finish first.

yah, it's a lot of work to support full rotation properly.
certainly to support the default orientation isn't too much work.

The BestCamera sample is the new go-to authority on getting things upright. Many of those samples were just coded to illustrate a single feature, so they are still valid from that viewpoint, but yes, they have limited utility outside of OMAP Z10 and Q10 :)
