feature: Reverse label order

[TommyAmberson]

Did you check the docs?

• [x] I have read all the flash.nvim docs

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I like to have the telescope results as a 'dropup' (instead of a dropdown) ...

but the labels are added from the top. This is annoying because the label order is there for a reason to make the easier keys more common. In the telescope integration I usually even have to use Uppercase keys.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd really like a way to just start the labels from the bottom.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I tried adding forward = false but that did not change anything. Does this do anything for other windows?

Additional context

My flash command:

	require("flash").jump({
		pattern = "^ *[^ ]",
		label = { before = true, after = false, style = "inline" },
		search = {
			forward = false,
			mode = "search",
			exclude = {
				function(win)
					return vim.bo[vim.api.nvim_win_get_buf(win)].filetype ~= "TelescopeResults"
				end,
			},
		},
		highlight = { matches = false },
		action = function(match)
			local picker = require("telescope.actions.state").get_current_picker(prompt_bufnr)
			picker:set_selection(match.pos[1] - 1)
		end,
	})

(note that I customized the pattern but that shouldn't effect this issue)

I had the same issue, I worked around it by adding an argument to jump:

                labels = (labels .. labels:upper()):reverse(),

where labels is your string of labels. The labels string needs to be long enough to cover all the picker lines; concatenating the upper case labels helps with this

[TommyAmberson]

I thought of that too but if there are only a few results (for example if I am using the buffer picker) then I only get the uppercase rarely used letters
