Reversed Arabic character ordering (version 0.9.0)

[ahmedelq]

Bug Report

Current Behavior
The order of the characters within each Arabic word is reversed in the output CSV file.
For example if a cell contains the sentence تقييم الطالب in the pdf, the csv result will be بلاطلا مييقت.
(for comparison sake, if a cell contains Student Results in the pdf it will become stluseR tnedutS in the produced csv).

Steps to reproduce

camelot --format csv --output out.csv lattice arabic.pdf 

Environment

• camelot version: 0.9.0
• Python 3.12.4
