Fix T76919: Wrong orientation when changing translate to rotate

During the refactor of the transform operations, in an attempt to
maintain previous behavior, the default orientation of the translate
and resize operations became `Global` and the rotate operation became
`View`.

Now the default is always `View`, and on redo, the translate and rotate
operations are saved as `Global`.
