Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing "automatic orientation" option and the image display path, then trace how screen and picture dimensions are obtained. Done means the orientation behavior is split into the two requested options and portrait images follow the stated fitting rule.

Description
* Xviewer version 3.2.0
* Distribution - Mint 20.2
Issue
On small screens pictures are hard to see. For portrait pictures ~ 2/3 of screen is left out when displaying them.
Please split "automatic orientation" option to two:
- based on metadata (I guess it is current one) "Metadata based"
- rotate clockwise 90 degrees based on formula(s): if (horizontal resolution of screen / vertical resolution of screen) > =1.5 AND (horizontal resolution of picture / vertical resolution of picture) <= 1.5 "Better fit the screen"
