[pickers] Add Support for Arabic (ar) Locale in @mui/x-date-pickers

[abderrahmane-ettounani-nw]

Summary

Currently, @mui/x-date-pickers provides support for multiple locales, including French (frFR) and others, but there is no built-in support for Arabic (ar). This limitation requires developers to manually create custom locale configurations to localize components for Arabic users.

import { arMA } from "@mui/x-date-pickers/locales";
to use it :
arMA.components.MuiLocalizationProvider.defaultProps.localeText;

Examples

Motivation

Please consider adding support for the Arabic (ar) locale to @mui/x-date-pickers, similar to how other locales (e.g., frFR) are implemented.

Benefits
Improved Developer Experience: Developers can directly use Arabic localization without custom workarounds.
Consistency: Aligns with the existing support for other widely used locales.
User Accessibility: Enhances usability for Arabic-speaking users, especially in right-to-left (RTL) contexts.

Hi,

The localization are maintained by the community (we don't have native speakers for most of the languages we support).
You can look at #3211 to learn more.

@0xenn feel free to open a PR, I will make sure to review it 🙏

I'll check with the other MUI product if we prefer to have a single Arabic locale or if we want to have one per dialect.
The Data Grid has ar-SD, @mui/material has ar-SA ar-SD and arEG`.
We have this issue on the core repo about it: mui/material-ui#31847
