Set dir="rtl" on the hidden ProseMirror editor's paragraph DOM elements when paragraphProperties.rightToLeft is true. Without this, the browser's native bidi cursor handling treated all text as LTR, causing ArrowLeft to move the cursor visually right and ArrowRight visually left in Arabic text. Also fix resolvePositionAtGoalX binary search for vertical navigation (up/down arrows) to invert search direction in RTL paragraphs where X coordinates decrease with increasing PM positions. SD-2390
Read RTL direction from the visual DOM element (set by DomPainter using resolved style properties) instead of calling doc.resolve(pmStart) inside the binary search helper. This fixes two review findings: 1. Eliminates RangeError crash when pmStart is stale (layout-derived positions can lag the current document after edits) 2. Correctly detects style-inherited RTL direction (not just inline paragraphProperties.rightToLeft) Also consolidates the duplicated makeRtlEditor test helper into the existing makeEditor, since isRtl is now a simple boolean parameter.

…ment Add Playwright behavior test that verifies ArrowLeft/ArrowRight move the cursor in the correct visual direction in RTL paragraphs (and regression test for LTR). Add visual regression test that screenshots cursor position after arrow navigation in an RTL document. Both use the existing rtl-mixed-bidi.docx fixture. SD-2390
