Description
As requested on the mailing list: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/cesium-dev/dnqBUH3Fx7M/iswm2vMz8DMJ
This might involve the same difficulties that prevent us from doing label scaling by distance, but I would have to check the label code to know for sure.

Research direction
Start with the linked mailing-list request, then inspect the label code to determine how rotation would interact with the existing label-rendering limitations. No source file or test is named, so first identify the relevant entry points and establish how label rotation should behave before implementation. Done means labels visibly support the requested rotation and the behavior is covered by appropriate tests.
