## What is the current behavior?
<!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying. -->

Currently, there is no support for moving between an iOS card view
(mobile, portrait modal with presenting element) to a non-card view when
the resolution changes (e.g., the device goes from a portrait layout to
landscape). This causes issues both way because modals that should be
card modals when the user transitions to a portrait view stay as
non-card modals and modals that were card modals when they were opened
but the user goes to landscape view end up with a black box stuck around
the edges of the screen.

## What is the new behavior?
<!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by
this PR. -->

With this change, we now fully support transitioning between the two
modal views when the resolution changes. This should fix the issue where
the background could become stuck and should be a nicer experience for
users switching between the two orientations while using modals.

I also took the time to clean up the terminology in use here to refer to
"mobile view" (as it was meant here) to be portrait view and the other
view to be referred to as landscape view. I did this because I had
accidentally mixed them up while working on this and I had to do a
refactor to fix it, so I'm hoping that by clarifying the terminology now
it helps prevent similar mistakes for others in the future.
