I didn't add a fixes tag here on purpose as I see this as an
improvement. Nothing wrong with just setting the orientation to normal
when cable is unplugged. But makes more sense to set it to none.

None of the upstream orientation switches drivers currently need
the orientation as none on unplug.
The new Parade PS8830 driver that is on the list for review is indeed helped by
this changed. But we can circumvent it there as well, if necessary.
My reason for this change was basically like: Since we can use the
connector status flags to figure out if the cable is plugged, we can
take this a step further and propagate orientation none on unplug.
Therefore, improvement rather than fix.
Anyway, if you still think that there should be a Fixes tag, please let
me know and I'll add it.
