fda6bd4a44 fix(bidi): set the font for Arabic characters
In function `+bidi--set-font`, the character set was incorrectly
hardcoded to `'hebrew` instead of using the provided character set `name`
parameter. This caused `+bidi-arabic-font` to have no effect when set.

Additionally, setting the scale throws an error:

```
string-match-p: Wrong type argument: stringp, DejaVu\ Sans
```

Converting the font family property to string fixed the issue.

db48f767b0 fix(bidi): fail gracefully if font is missing
The module will now emit a warning instead of throwing an uncaught
error (and thus stopping Emacs' startup process).

Fix: #7202

* feat(bidi): add +bidi-global-mode

* docs(bidi): improve font setting instructions

* feat(bidi): add +bidi-(hebrew|arabic)-font

Since the Hebrew and Arabic unicode blocks cover the vast majority of
RTL languages used today, we provide these fonts so end users don't have
to bother with setting up the hooks themselves.

* feat(bidi): add smart fontify

Adds support for using the bidi fonts on surrounding whitespace and
punctuation through. On by default, customizable through
+bidi-want-smart-fontify and +bidi-smart-fontify-keywords.

Also adds face versions of the bidi fonts.

* docs(bidi): recommend known good nastaliq fonts

* fix(bidi): re-set bidi faces after changing fonts

* feat(bidi): add +bidi-paragraph-direction

This allows users to choose what bidi-paragraph-direction is set to when
+bidi-mode is on, so they can choose if they want per paragraph
alignment (the default) or to force everything to be aligned RTL

* docs(bidi): conform to verbatim/code conventions

* docs(bidi): add font overview to Features

* docs(bidi): warn on rtl forced alignment footgun

+bidi-paragraph-direction is a nice variable to have if you primarily
use +bidi-mode for rtl text buffers, but it shouldn't be used in
conjunction with +bidi-global-mode since it messes up English buffers.
