artemp/tickets2issues — Issue #146: Label placement regressions

r557 changed the behavior of label placement.
See the attached images for details.

output_old.png - from revision r556 (Note the even, centered text on the straight roads)
output_80.png - current SVN with label_spacing 80
output_100.png - current SVN with label_spacing 100

Before r557 text would always be centered on the road, from r557 it is offset from the start of the linestring instead.
This prevents roads that should be given a single label from having any labels if offset+string length > linestring length.
