[gimp-help] Add more details to the View/Flip & Rotate submenu



commit 220c4a4fcdce0659b132be66ff78a9de73ca1c1f

    Add more details to the View/Flip & Rotate submenu
    
    Updated image since it had one missing menu command and added sub
    sections for all commands with their help id's, that way we don't get
    missing help.
    
    (cherry picked from commit d8766a556818b2009514d1dc8d43e7bb42673808)
