  Ubuntu right-to-left consistency

Bug description:
  Most toolkits properly deal with right-to-left, properly inverting the
  UI.

  When doing ISO testing, I noticed it's not quite the case for unity
  greeter and unity, here are some notes of the inconsistencies I
  noticed:

  = Unity =
  - Launcher is on the left, identical to a left-to-right system
  - Indicators are on the right, identical to a left-to-right system

  I'm not sure what's the best as I'm not a right-to-left user myself,
  but we should either have Unity also invert its UI, making it
  consistent with what's done in the greeter's panel.

  [This report previously also covered RTL in the greeter, which is
  tracked separately in bug 834386.]
