Seems mir has the necessary support with
mir_surface_set_preferred_orientation, which confusingly doesn't do
anything at the moment, as the shell isn't honouring it.

I'm currently providing orientation support in neverball and tuxracer by
rotating the whole scene and touch input to the user preference, and
locking to an arbitrary orientation using the desktop file parameter to
prevent automatic rotation interfering with the gameplay.

It'd be much better if the mir surface flag was honoured so the panel
and gesture edges would also be rotated in order to maintain consistency
with other applications.
