BUG: 207748 Migrated this patch from https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/125442/ since it had whitespace errors and the submitter disappeared.

BUG: 207748 Since arabic search does not work properly in all but pdf backends, this is a quick attempt to fix this problem. I assumed that text in okular document is in the logical order[ it is a bug by itself]. So by mirroring the search text, the search function works again. The limitation: - you can not search arabic and english text together. Future work: we need to check that text generated by poppler is placed in Visual order, so when we copy it and paste it in text editor is still readable.
