### Describe the issue
Hello,
I have a problem with open3d.visualization.gui.Application. It seems that back face culling is not activated, nor can it be activated, when we instantiate a gui.Application.
It seems that Back face culling is active when using "o3d.visualization.Visualizer" but not with "open3d.visualization.gui.Application". In any case, I can't access the rendering options to modify this.
Thank you for your work. This library is very powerful.
### Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
Please see an example with the linked ZIP file:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mdkfQvTyeN0-imfflJkyGTB3R_SM2ghH/view?usp=sharing
In the zip, I added a file "tank.gltf" that contains a cylinder with inverted faces that I exported from Blender. I added a file "test_visualiser.py" that contains the Open3D code that uses the "o3d.visualization.Visualizer" class.
I also added the "test_app.py" file which is a copy of the example "vis-gui-py" http://www.open3d.org/docs/release/python_example/visualization/index.html#vis-gui-py and which uses "open3d.visualization.gui.Application":
```
### Error message
_No response_
### Expected behavior
Back face culling should be enabled by default and there should be a method to change this state.
