Description of the new feature/enhancement

Created out of: #12294
For reference: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/conf/#opt-kitty.force_ltr

The following applies practically only to Hebrew:
Some applications (vim -H for instance) write RTL scripts already in reverse in order to place glyphs on the right side of the terminal. In order for us to support such RTL-aware applications we need to add a setting which allows the user to suppress BiDi detection.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

When we add BiDi detecting in AtlasEngine, we should skip the detection if rendering in "logical order" is force-enabled.
