Replaces the Disable automatic screen rotation toggle in Display → Settings with a 3-way Automatic screen rotation: Disabled / Enabled / Tablet mode only combobox — the UI @mtwebster suggested in #10697.

The control sits over two GSettings: the existing orientation-lock and the new disable-rotation-in-laptop-mode (cinnamon-settings-daemon#463). The actual tablet-mode gating is in Muffin: linuxmint/muffin#832. Supersedes the GUI from #10708.

Requires #463 (the schema key) to be installed. Happy to take feedback on the wording/layout — or to keep a plain toggle instead if you'd rather.

Replace the Display -> Settings rotation toggle with a combobox
(Disabled / Enabled / Tablet mode only), as suggested in linuxmint#10697, over the
existing orientation-lock plus the new disable-rotation-in-laptop-mode key.

The tablet-mode gating itself lives in Muffin (linuxmint/muffin#832) and the new
key in cinnamon-settings-daemon (linuxmint#463). Supersedes linuxmint#10708. Re: linuxmint#10697.
