[XeTeX] beamer support for bidi and xepersian

beamer heavily relies on \special and this does not work in RTL mode in
XeTeX and so fixing beamer for RTL in XeTeX does not make any sense. If the
issue of \special in RTL mode is fixed, then beamer can be easily modified
for RTL typesetting otherwise you can not expect much.

I think the original beamer package should provide bidi support so I
recommend you contact beamer maintainers and ask them for bidi support in
beamer.


but if you want contribute code to fix beamer in bidi, you are more than
welcome to do so.
