New Textobj: backwards-seeking textobjects

[rish987]

Textobj requested

I often find that the text object I want is located behind, rather than in front of, the current cursor position. I was wondering if it would be possible to enhance all of the textobjects that currently have forwards-seeking behavior to also have a backwards-seeking variant. We could perhaps reserve a special character such that, if it preceeds the mapping for any text object, instructs it to seek backwards rather than forwards (or perhaps capitalize one of the letters).

Sample Text

N/A

Inner/Outer Difference

Vimscript plugin already implementing the textobj

Filetypes

Checklist

• The textobj would be useful to more users than just me. (You can use the API to create custom textobj.)
• There is no lua plugin already implementing the textobj in an adequate manner.
• I read the docs and checked that there is no such textobj already.

This bot is really bad

I'm also particularly interested in backwards variation for:

• restOfIndentation
• toNextClosingBracket
• toNextQuotationMark

Though I haven't looked at the code yet. Is this something that would require some big time refactoring?
