fix(direction): le sens du document traduit suit la langue cible, dans les deux sens

Persan -> francais : le document traduit restait en lecture de droite a
gauche, heritee de la source. Trois causes :

- PDF : regression du renommage precedent — le choix d'alignement
  testait la fonction is_rtl (toujours vraie) au lieu du parametre :
  tout texte traduit s'alignait a droite, quelle que soit la cible.
  Corrige + test epinglant l'alignement gauche pour une cible latine.
- Word : les marques RTL heritees (bidi, rtl, bidiVisual, notes et
  commentaires compris) sont desormais retirees quand la cible est
  latine ; retrait fait sur une liste figee (l'iterateur lxml sautait
  des elements pendant la suppression).
- Excel : les feuilles heritees d'un affichage droite-a-gauche sont
  remises en lecture gauche-a-droite pour une cible latine.
- PowerPoint : les attributs rtl herites sont retires pour une cible
  latine (alignements visuels conserves).

3 tests de bout en bout nouveaux : document RTL traduit vers le
francais ressort en lecture gauche-a-droite dans les trois formats.
