Add --no-auto-resize option (patch included)

[krzvq]

I use an app which mostly runs in landscape mode but occasionally briefly switches to portrait mode and back. scrpy auto-resizes during this but does not keep the original window position so the scrpcpy window gradually migrates across the screen.
I have include a patch against scrcpy-3.1 that adds a "--no-auto-resize" option to avoid this. I'm hoping you'll consider adding it to the main release.

Hi,

Note that a workaround for your specific use case could be to lock the orientation with --capture-orientation=@: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/blob/master/doc/video.md#orientation

That being said, a new option --no-auto-resize makes sense. I added it to my TODO list to review/merge (I'm busy on other things currently).

On GitHub, you should open a PR instead of posting a patch. At least, please indicate your "author string" (e.g. krzvq <[email protected]>, feel free to replace krzvq by your first name and name).

I'm not familiar with how things are done on GitHub so wasn't aware a PR was the preferred method. Will do that.

I tried --capture-orientation before - it partially works in that while the scrpy window still rotates it's at least between two fixed positions. However if the window is too close to the edge of the screen at startup then it will move position on the first rotation to accommodate both orientations appearing fully on screen so it still ends up out of the position where I want it to be. That may be down to the window manager, rather than scrcpy, but just getting scrcpy to resize the content to the window instead of the other way around is a cleaner solution for my use case and seems to me to be something that would be useful in wider use cases too.

Not if the orientation is locked with a @.
