With the attached patch, all of the sample documents attached to this issue and
to issue 30158 import correctly.
The code makes two changes on OO's behavior:
1. The default alignment of cells which begin with a Hebrew letter is to the
right, like Excel, and unlike the distributed OOo. I don't know whether Excel
behaves this way for all RTL languages, but this is Excel's behavior for Hebrew,
so the patch tests only for Hebrew.
2. In an imported Excel document, mixed-text cells beginning with a non-Hebrew
char and with "Context" text-direction will have the text direction set to LTR.
This is the case in cell C5 of the sample document
"textdirection_import_biff8.xls".
There is still a problem - when editing a cell with default alignment, the text
in the grid becomes left-aligned even for Hebrew, for the duration of the edit.
(This is only a problem on the grid, not in the input edit box above the grid.)
Once the editing is finished, the alignment reverts back to the correct form.
