    As a side effect it also sets position maps if not NULL.

    You should provide the resolved paragraph direction and embedding levels as

    levels may change a bit.  To be exact, the embedding level of any sequence
    of white space at the end of line is reset to the paragraph embedding level
    (That is part 4 of rule L1).

    Note that the bidi types and embedding levels are not reordered.  You can
    reorder these (or any other) arrays using the map later.  The user is
    responsible to initialize map to something sensible, like an identity
    mapping, or pass NULL if no map is needed.

    There is an optional part to this function, which is whether non-spacing
    marks for right-to-left parts of the text should be reordered to come after
    their base characters in the visual string or not.  Most rendering engines
