org.apache.poi.hslf.record.TextSpecInfoRun has `void setBidi(Boolean)` and `Boolean getBidi()`

I opened an arabic docx and found another way to specify the bidi value.

this.paragraph.getPPr().getRPr().getLang().getBidi() - returns java.lang.Object

The doc I looked at had "ar-eg" (meaning Egyptian Arabic).
