Settings: flip local video feed by default (#29501)

Most (if not all) video chat apps show my local video mirrored. Element
not doing it by default is makes it confusing at first.
Even my phone camera app does it.

Not only matching other video chat tools out there, 99% of times you see
yourself in your day to day life is through a mirror, which flips the
image. So matching that makes the most sense, to preserve continuity.

This setting was made optional in https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/pull/5437
but not defaulted to true.

Fixes https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/issues/10651
