Subject: [PATCH] Fix curved text rendering - move positioning to Group

- Move x/y positioning from TextPath to Group wrapper
- TextPath now renders at default position using only path data
- Group handles x/y positioning and dragging
- Remove fontStyle/letterSpacing from TextPath (not needed)
- This should fix text disappearing when curved text is enabled
