Navigation gesture detection for swiping between photos usually don't work in landscape mode

Description

In Ente Photos on iOS, user can navigate between photos by swiping left and right. This work flawlessly in portrait mode but barely working in landscape mode.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Click on any photo to enter "full-screen mode".
2. Try to navigate to other photo by swiping left/right.
3. The success ratio in my case is about 10-20%, meaning that 80-90% gesture handling is not detected.

This makes navigation very annoying as I believe lots of users would navigate between photos in landscape mode as it fills more screen ratio.

This is more reproducible for standard horizontal photos; for vertical ones, gesture detection works better in landscape mode. Might be a valuable clue.

I suppose some gesture detection override each other in landscape mode. I'd love to make a fix myself, unfortunately I'm not familiar with Flutter 😅
