Research direction

Reproduce the issue with a Button using android:insetLeft="100dp" and Android's "Force RTL layout direction" enabled, using Material Library 1.13.0-alpha01. Trace the Button inset handling and add or update coverage for RTL layout direction; done means the inset renders on the expected side and the relevant test passes.
