The old code assumed the directionality of the TextBoxes was the same as the Paragraph. The new code gets the directionality from CanvasKit (which it computes using Unicode data).

Fixes flutter/flutter#78550

I had to add an exception for canvaskit/text.dart to use dart:js_util because CanvasKit puts the direction property as a JS property on the Float32List. Raw JavaScript access is the only way to get at it.
