Summary: Entering a negative value (e.g., -1) in the font size
field is accepted and results in extremely small text,
instead of being rejected as invalid input.

Description:
Entering a negative value (e.g., -1) in the font size field is accepted and
results in extremely small text, instead of being rejected as invalid input.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a document in LibreOffice Writer
2. Select some text
3. Click on the font size input field
4. Enter -1
5. Press Enter
Actual Results:
The text becomes extremely small (nearly invisible), similar to behavior
observed when entering 0 or non-numeric values.
Expected Results:
The application should:
Reject negative values as invalid input, OR
Clamp the value to a defined minimum font size, OR
Display a validation error message
It should not accept negative values or apply unintended formatting.
Reproducible: Always
