Description
Expected Behavior
Negative numbers in RTL languages still display the minus sign on the left of the number in the go forward/backward (n) layers block.
Related to #2043 (negative numbers in boolean blocks), #2386 (set variable negative number), and #1707 (negative sign is incorrect when editing a numeric value), but keeping them separate since fixing one block may not fix the others.
Actual Behavior
Negative sign is on the right instead of the left.
Steps to Reproduce
Switch to Persian (Farsi) in the language menu

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by switching Scratch Blocks to Persian and using the go forward/backward (n) layers block. Inspect that block's handling of negative numbers and compare it with the related RTL issues #2043, #2386, and #1707. Done means the minus sign appears on the left of the number in RTL languages.
