AVFoundation: fix orientation of recorded videos.

Make sure the video is recorded in the same orientation as the device.
That means the top of the video matches the physical side of the device
which is on top when starting recording.
This patch makes sure the behavior is the same as on Android. In a
future version, we should have an API to pick the desired orientation
of the recorded video.
