apps that rotate screen fail to rotate pointer coordinates #119

Description

@StevanWhite

Rotation of the screen from within some apps triggers an unrecoverable bug,
The pointer coordinates are not rotated along with the screen.

This is Android-x86 pie-x86 of 2022-04-15, running on an
acer TravelMate Spin B311RN-31-P5KK.

An example app can be found at the F-Droid repository:

Calculator v. 1.1.0
com.neuromorphic.calculator

This results in the main Android buttons being displayed on the far right of the screen,
with no possibility of reaching them from the touch-screen. Because the pointer coordinates
are not rotated, and the screen is much wider than it is high, the pointer coordinates of the
buttons are off-screen, unreachable.

I have found no way out of this, but to re-boot.
