I believe it is either "force portrait" or "autorotate", there is no "force landscape".

You flip it landscape and turn off autorotation.
When my phone was updated to Android 9, that toggle became force-portrait. If I enable it now, it immediately turns back to portrait and disables rotation.
I'm on AOSP Android 10 and it works as I described. Can't remember the behaviour on 9. Have a good one.
From Android 10 or maybe 9 on the side of the soft keys bar appears a little rotation icon when you flip the device.
