Re: [whatwg/fullscreen] Requesting orientation lock when going fullscreen (#186)

Requesting orientation with fullscreen seems like a nice ergonomic addition.

See relevant WebApps WG TPAC [minutes](https://www.w3.org/2022/09/12-webapps-minutes.html#t17). Some questions around that discussion may be pertinent (FYI @JakeArchibald and @kenchris):
- Whether orientation is a hint or requests fail and exit with errors. How sites might introspect supported values, locked values, and changes of each.
- Whether switching orientation(s) when already fullscreen would be supported (e.g. game starts "portrait-primary" for a menu, then changes to "landscape" for gameplay).
- Exploring the interactions of this proposed surface with `screen.orientation.lock()` and Web Application Manifest's default [orientation](https://www.w3.org/TR/appmanifest/#orientation-member).
