Screen should not rotate automatically on a laptop

Bug description:
There are recently more machines shipped with an accelerometer to
bring about the automatic rotation feature on pad-like or 2in1
products. However, manufacturers sometimes share designs between
platforms; a laptop may mount an accelerometer on its panel. The user
experience on laptops with a fixed keyboard/touchpad that rotates
automatically is somehow annoying, and the touchpad motion is
confusing.
The SMBIOS specification defines chassis type in section 7.4.1. Softwares can
determine to rotate automatically or not by checking this value, or at least
not to rotate on a laptop(0x09) and notebook(0x0A).
