This reverts commit 427f8bc009.
When receiving an output update for the mode size we need to rotate the stored
width and height values if and only if we have an xdg-output for this output
since in this case the stored values describe the output's size in logical
space, i.e. rotated.
The here reverted commit made a code change with which we would not rotate though
when an xdg-output was available since in this case the need_rotate variable was
set to False what caused in the check afterwards the first branch to execute.
X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.
