I attached a patch for defect [ #10531: vf_drawtext causing font rendering jitter after libharfbuz commit. ]

Before the patch the width of a text line was measured up to the rightmost visible pixel of the last character. Pros: the right padding specified with the boxborderw parameter is exact with respect to the visible text Cons: the width of a text line depends on the last character, even with monospaced fonts

After the patch the width of the last character is set equal to the width specified in the font file, which may include some empty space. Pros: when using monospaced fonts the width of a line depends only on the number of characters, this is also the standard behavior adopted by other rendering strategies, e.g. in browsers Cons: the user specified right padding may not be equal to the distance between the background box right border and the rightmost visible pixel of the text.
