Pointers for direct cursor mode in LibreOffice and MS Word
Description:
Previously in direct cursor mode (Edit > Direct Cursor Mode), a black filled
triangle was drawn on the left and/or right side of the normal editing cursor.
The old way of doing the drawing using XOR mode caused the issue tdf#122970.
With the new fix for that bug, the autoscroll pointer shape is used, which is
not optimal.
As can be read in f9f7cfc080c3adb751ceca96be4ca5440de4a2b6:
There is no perfect match for the previous mouse pointer shape, so now
instead of left triangle, PointerStyle::AutoScrollW is used. Also instead
of right triangle, PointerStyle::AutoScrollE is used.
The task here is to design 3 new cursor types for direct editing in
LibreOffice. 2 of them were previously used in direct cursor mode.
Right now, there are only two pointer shapes for direct editing: left and
right, but there is a third "center" pointer shape in MS Word, and it would be
good to also have this third center pointer shape for later use.
