Option to flip the display upside down and reduce brightness (or night mode)

[lwbt]

The way I'm planning to use my JetKVM would highly benefit from being able to flip the display upside down. Think of mounting the device with the display facing upwards and connectors facing downwards. This would make JetKVMs unique enclosure even more versatile and useful than other products.

Being able to reduce display brightness would also be beneficial for people concerned about energy consumption, display longevity or light pollution.
Ubiquiti for comparison has features to control brightness and a night mode (a controllable schedule) to turn the display off (they have a touch screen though which makes the screen react to inputs and turn on again when needed turns out JetKVM has a touchscreen too, just need to touch it a bit longer).

A picture better describes what I mean:

For this, we're currently waiting for more information about jetkvm_native, either for it to become open source, or for it to get a documented RPC call for display rotation, jetkvm_native deals with drawing to the LCD.

Being able to reduce display brightness would also be beneficial

In progress: #17 available in https://github.com/Nevexo/jetkvm-kvm/releases/tag/next-5 but UI settings don't work (and aren't fully implemented) - the feature works well if configured manually (in kvm_config.json) but we're not currently sure if it'll be merged as is, as backlight control might just get hoisted up into jetkvm_native

I believe there should also be an option to have the display switched off all the time. When the user needs to see the ip or other details, touching the display may switch it on for a while.

That would be an awesome night mode
