Inky frame rotate

When using rotate=90 on the inky frame 7.3, it actually rotates it 180

🤔 https://github.com/pimoroni/pimoroni-pico/blob/970046e84ae73cad23deae28fd6e96427aa0eb64/drivers/inky73/inky73.cpp#L88

Looks like it doesn’t support 90/270 degree rotations (some mix of the chip not supporting it and/or it being a pain to accomplish in software) so if the rotation != 0 then it’s set to 180.

Might be worth looking into why 90 isn’t supported- of course past me didn’t leave any useful comment 😫

just ran across this, +1 for supporting 90-degree rotation, given the rest of picographics doesn’t readily support drawing rotated!

Not just me then! This would be very handy as writing the code do display everything landscape is extremely cumbersome.
