FR: Larger delay for gyro rotation #12666

Description

@mergen3107

Does your feature request involve difficulty completing a task? Please describe.
Gyro rotation happen too quickly on Kindle Scribe.

Describe the solution you'd like
Would be great to have a delay (maybe customizable) that decides to rotate the screen.
Use case: when I would like to rotate by 180 deg.
Naturally, I just rotate CW or CCW until it is 180 deg apart.
KOReader is rotating once: only by 90 deg, then doesn't register another 90 deg (because it was busy rendering double columns in a epub book, I guess). So I have to rotate it back and forth by 90 deg again.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Try to rotate by pushing Kindle at the top, so it never sees any 90 degree rotations. However, it is awkward to handle Kindle in this case.

Additional context
I didn't use 90 deg rotations before exactly because of this (and too high sensitivity when it triggers the rotation), so I kept Lock auto rotation to current orientation turned on.

However, with the invention of #12612 now I really enjoy my auto-profiles, so I keep it off now.
