* fix(content): rotation-aware media dimensions — portrait no longer stored landscape (#170)
Ingest recorded CODED width/height and ignored rotation, so a portrait phone video
(coded 1920x1080 + 90° Display-Matrix) or a portrait photo (EXIF orientation 6) was
stored LANDSCAPE. The player then rendered it wrong-aspect and letterboxed — the
"portrait content degraded + blue bar at the bottom" symptom in #170. The reporter's
workaround (pre-rotate + mark Landscape) is exactly what this bug forces.
- lib/media-orientation.js (new): pure, unit-tested display-dimension helpers = single
source of truth for ingest AND the backfill. videoDisplayDims() reads the modern
Display-Matrix side_data rotation (falls back to the legacy tags.rotate, sign-normalized);
imageDisplayDims() honors EXIF orientation 5..8. Odd quarter-turns swap W/H.
- lib/content-ingest.js: use the helpers for stored dims; add sharp .rotate() so image
THUMBNAILS are auto-oriented too (video thumbs were already auto-rotated by ffmpeg).
- scripts/backfill-rotation-dims.js (new): idempotent, dry-run-by-default maintenance to
correct already-uploaded portrait media (re-probe -> fix dims -> regenerate image thumbs).
- test/media-orientation.test.js: 5 bites (tag + Display-Matrix, sign/normalize, EXIF 5..8,
the blue-bar landscape->portrait case, null-safety).
Scopes #170 to its residual-on-1.9.4 issues; the 1.9.3 "never displays" slice was #162 +
the remote_url-null download fix, already shipped in 1.9.4. The slow low-res/orientation-
cycling first load is tracked separately in #170 pending repro data.

* fix(android): honor EXIF orientation in ImageLoader so portrait photos render upright (#170)
Completes the rotation-aware media fix on the PLAYER side. The server ingest fix (this
branch) corrects stored dimensions + auto-orients the thumbnail, but the panel draws the
full-res original via BitmapFactory, which ignores EXIF — so a portrait photo (landscape
pixels tagged "rotate 90") still rendered sideways on the screen. QA root-cause pass on
#170 caught this gap: the Android player reads no stored dims and applied no EXIF.
ImageLoader now reads the EXIF orientation (from the file for cached content, from the byte
stream for remote_url images — ExifInterface(stream) is API 24+, minSdk is 24) and rotates/
flips the decoded bitmap via a Matrix (all 8 orientations). NORMAL/UNDEFINED is a no-op (no
extra allocation); a transformed copy recycles the source; OOM falls back to the source
rather than crashing. Videos were already correct (ExoPlayer honors the rotation matrix).
Verified: :app:compileDebugKotlin clean.
Refs #170. Rides with the server rotation-dims fix on this branch.
