Public bug reported:

Auto-rotate images based upon the orientation flag in the EXIF metadata.
It is not difficult to manually rotate images (see bug #486174), but it
would be even better to automatically rotate them.

The absence of auto-rotation can be confusing to the user if they have
previously viewed the images using software that honors the orientation
flag (such as the Gnome image viewer).  As far as they are concerned,
the images are fine until they are imported into OpenShot which appears
to rotate them into the incorrect orientation.
