[Elphel-support] Physically rotate SFE 180 degrees

[Andrey Filippov]

Hi Nathan,

Why do you need to rotate the SFE by 180? You can just select the direction
of the readout, so all scanned lines will match. In our multi-sensor
cameras we do not care much about such rotation, orient SFE in one of the
two ways depending on the mechanical convenience.
