This PR improves RTL (Arabic/Persian) readability by making direction handling paragraph-level, similar to how Telegram handles mixed-direction text. It aims to be minimal and localized, affecting only text rendering surfaces.

Changes:

  • Message bodies: apply Unicode bidi handling so each paragraph’s direction resolves naturally (RTL/LTR mixing behaves correctly).
  • Formatted/markdown HTML: ensure block elements (paragraphs, blockquotes, lists, list items) get direction applied so quote gutters and list markers/indentation appear on the correct side in RTL.
  • Room topic surfaces: apply the same bidi behavior for topic previews/viewers.

Commits:

  • Fix bidi direction for RTL paragraphs
  • Fix RTL markers for markdown quotes and lists
