Flip the source stream instead of just the preview window.

The difference (for the user) is that the old behaviour would appear to flip both the input and the avatar, while now the avatar stays in the same orientation. This change can make it easier to get a comfortable alignment with the avatar if one has the webcam slightly off to the side

Actually I never used the T key feature, this was merged from a fork in the early days. I tested your modification and, honestly. I didn't get the point. This is only because I don't use this option and it's hard to me to judge.

I have my webcam slightly under my left monitor, so it will either see me straight ahead or from the left side (when I'm looking at my right monitor). Now if I have an avatar where the subject is looking right it will be quite awkward for me to match it. I have to look to the left side of my left monitor during calibration, which is doable, but whenever I turn to look at my right monitor my pose is too far from the calibration and gives really bad results.

If I can flip the input video I can match a right-facing avatar by looking at my right monitor (because it's now mirrored) which is much easier.

Hmm, I would've expected github to have private messages, but it seems like it doesn't.. Anyhow, my mail is [redacted] ,but I also have Discord, IRC and Hangouts in case you want a faster conversation

@JohanAR You do know that, although GitHub does not feature private DMs, it logs issue comment edits, right? So therefore [redact]ing emails have no real purpose? 😅

I did not know that :D Just thought I'd reduce the risk of spam bots scraping up my email, but it's not super secret or anything
