Resolve "RTL Titles in issues are displayed Left-to-Right"

Ahmad Haghighi requested to merge haghighi/gitlab-ce:48479-auto-direction-for-issue-title into master

What does this MR do?

Auto direction for title of Issues on:

  • Issue list
  • Activity page
  • Issue's page
  • Issues boards

Auto direction for Input boxes:

  • New Issue's description
  • Issue's description edit box
  • New Issue's title
  • Issue's title edit box
  • New comments
  • Comments edit box

Auto direction for Broadcast messages

As mentioned in related issue (#48479 (closed) ), the direction for issue's title and most of the right-to-left contents is Left-to-Right (for all languages and combinations).
Alignment and direction should be changed based on content's of the text (as what we have in descriptions show).

For example, in some cases that we need a combination of English and Farsi/Arabic in Issue title, the static LTR direction makes title too hard to read!

Our title:

عنوان فارسی با english1 و همچنین english2 در میانه عنوان

Current output/show in Issue page:

Current output/show in Issue's list page:

Desired output/show for Issue page:

Desired output/show for Issue's list page:

For Issue's list page I prefer to keep alignment as default (left) because it's more easy to read and gives a unified view to user.
