[Mono-dev] RightToLeftLayout functions

I recently did TextBox etc. It wasn't too difficult, the main problem being
that the control was drawn at an assumption of (0,0) with the scroll bars
always on the right. I couldn't help thinking that there should be a nice
common way of doing it e.g. an internal ScrollableControl that automatically
adjusted offsets.

At least if you get the latest SVN, the text-boxes should all work RTOL.

Maybe worth asking on the winforms list instead/as well.
