Subject: [PATCH] Fix: Force console to use LTR layouting.

In-game console is not translatable and uses English strings, but becomes a mess when the game language is RTL.

Force console rendering to use LTR regardless of language direction. Individual RTL runs within the text will still be processed as RTL.
