Description
Originally by @magi42
Now the minimum value is always left in horizontal and bottom in vertical slider. Reversing the slider would be useful.
For example, if you want to set a coordinates with a Slider, the coordinates would need to be from bottom-left origo, which is not good; for example HTML has top-left origo.

Research direction
Start by locating the Slider component and its existing tests in the Vaadin framework repository. Review how horizontal and vertical minimum values are positioned, then determine the expected API and test coverage for reversing either orientation. Done means a slider can place its minimum value at the opposite end while preserving the existing behavior by default.
