wrong text align in RTL

[sijad]

Environment

react-native: 0.59.3
react-native-paper: 2.15.2

Description

this commit changes text align behavior in android.
react-native-paper also try to achieve something similar via styling but now it introduces conflict with that commit and text components (Subheader, Text, etc) renders in apposite direction.

react-native's Text component renders as it should be but react-native-paper text components are not.

as far as the TextInput concerns, seems like it's aligning the text contents based on the actual value entered (the first letter), not the current language.

For example...
input value = "Ahmed", alignment = left
input value = "احمد", alignment = right
input value = "Ahmed احمد", alignment = left
input value = "احمد Ahmed", alignment = right
input value = "123 احمد", alignment = right

This is irrespective of I18nManager.isRTL returns true or false, numbers and special characters also have no effect on alignment

"react-native-paper": "^2.15.2",

Update
Actually you are right. the above behavior is in LTR mode, in RTL its reversed.
