Only allow AM to update display orientation based on app containers
Activity manager choregraphs several app states when starting an
activity including when the display orientation should be updated based
on the app that is now in the foreground. It is possible for a call to
originate within WM after AM adds the starting app token, but before AM
makes the app visible and resumed. E.g. A relayout call due to a
starting window. When this happens WM can prematurely update the display
orientation with incomplete information causing the starting app to be
in an incorrect orientation initially.
To fix this problem we now only factor in app containers (stacks, task,
..) when updating the display orientation if the call to update is
coming from AM. Otherwise we only use the non-app/system containers to
determine the orientation or return the last orientation.
