Bug Description

Now that full shell rotation has landed in development channels, the camera app doesn't give a good experience for the user.
In landscape, the controls move with the screen's rotation and thus put them at the bottom just like how it is in portrait.

I think the controls should be at the side when in landscape mode just like before. Another problem is that when rotation is locked, the user cannot use the camera in portrait and thus cannot take pictures in portrait. In summary, the camera app should still behave like before the shell rotation landed
