Default bullet and numbering icons in Arabic UI

For your information, I managed to provide icon additions to all themes for RTL
language (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu) so it will looked like in the above
attachment. 

Unfortunately there is no correlation between RTL UI with RTL-type document
that make this thing messed up. When one using Arabic UI, LibreOffice always
treat document by default as a LTR type so when user try to change paragraph
direction then the icon flipped badly.

Here come my suggestions:

1. Make RTL-LTR UI choice affects the default RTL-LTR document type. So RTL UI
user will get a RTL document type and a LTR UI will get LTR document type.

2. If user want to change the document direction type, make icon use another
version, not simply flipped them.

For example for general (LTR UI), we have `cmd/sc_defaultbullet.png` icon for
bullet list. While for Arabic I made `ar/cmd/sc_default.bullet.png`. So when an
Arabic UI user open Writer, he should get `ar/cmd/sc_default.bullet.png` and
when he/she switch paragraph direction to LTR he/she should get
`cmd/sc_defaultbullet.png` icon.

This quite simple as we have done for design part but clearly need a code.
