Subject: [PATCH] chore(android): lock MainActivity to portrait
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Operator feedback: landscape just stretches the phone-portrait
Compose layout awkwardly — every screen was sized for one column
of cards, so rotation produces wide rows of unrelated content with
big dead bands top and bottom. Until a dedicated tablet/landscape
layout exists, lock the activity to portrait via screenOrientation.

Revisit when a sw600dp resource set + multi-pane layouts land.
