 Summary of the bug:

 Prior to 1 or more of the below commits to vf_drawtext, it was possible to
 draw running timecode, justified to the centre or right edge and not have
 any horizontal jitter as the numbers ticked up. After the below commits,
 this is no longer the case and the numbers move around horizontally as the
 width of the characters changes, even though a monospaced font is being
 used.
