better label in polygon placement
---------------------------------

                 Key: GEOT-1128
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1128
             Project: GeoTools
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core render
            Reporter: Vincent Schut
         Assigned To: Jesse Eichar


Currently geotools uses the centroid of the intersection of the polygon and 
bbox envelope for label placement, and does not render the label when it 
(partly) falls outside of the bbox. This allows for polygons being visible in 
the bbox, and the label would fit inside that part, however is not rendered. It 
would be better to change the algorithm so that it tries to fit the label's 
envelope rectangle in the visible part of the polygon, maybe with a bias 
towards positions that are close to the centroid.
