Comment (by d4z_c0nf):

 Hi there,
 for what I can see that's a "presentation" issue.

 (The WP default prev and next texts don't have any arrow:
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.8.2/src/wp-includes/link-
 template.php#L2534
 You can also verify that the_posts_pagination works fine in
 twentyseventeen.)

 I tested generate press, and:
 1) The produced html is consistent (the elements order doesn't change
 whether you're in rtl or not)
 2) I could see the "presentation" issue you're reporting:
 What I see is that while the right arrow appears before "Previous" it's
 actually part of the "Next" link (and vice versa for the left arrow).
 E.g. you can "fix" it using the following CSS:
 {{{
 .nav-links .page-numbers {
     display: inline-block;
 }
 }}}
 (or apply a floating property to the prev and next links, ... )
 So, imho, this is not a core issue.
