Add RTL toggle button for preview pane

[EssamSoft]

Adds an RTL button (text-only, no icon) to both the desktop toolbar and mobile menu that toggles right-to-left direction on the markdown preview. State is persisted to localStorage and restored on page load.

Thank you for the idea and implementation, but there is a question about why we need the RTL button. Already in #61 , it mentions that the space needs to be clear for more working space. I don't think it's a good idea to add it right now, but I have a plan to implement it. I want to make a panel with all tools like H1, H2, H3, inline, bold, table, code, quote, etc., and there I will add this RTL button. Is that ok?

Thanks for your response. I think adding a toolbar might make the UX a bit more complicated. The simplified RTL button is very useful for me as an Arabic speaker. Some documents contain both Arabic and English, which causes reading issues due to the conflicting text directions between the two languages. For my use case, the ideal solution is the ‘magic’ RTL button to switch direction on demand while reading.

Hi @EssamSoft , Thank you for your support and contribution.
I was really inspired by your implementation for Arabic and right-to-left reading support. Your feedback about making reading easier for Arabic users was amazing and very helpful.
Based on your pull request and suggestion, I have now implemented both RTL and LTR toggle buttons in the new version of the Markdown Viewer.
Please review the updated feature and share your feedback or suggestions for further improvements. I’d really appreciate your thoughts on making it even better.

Thanks again for your contribution and support!

Thank you for the update! 🙏

One small UX note: placing the RTL button at the top of the preview pane would feel more natural — when users are in reading mode, they're not interacting with the editor toolbar, so a dedicated button near the preview area would be more accessible.
