Describe your feature request here

Right now, if you use sf::Text::setLineSpacing(float) and sf::Text::setLetterSpacing(float),
you risk getting blurry images.

As an example: above text with setLetterSpacing(1.1), below text with setLetterSpacing(1.0).

I propose two functions, setLineSpacingRounding(bool) and setLetterSpacingRounding(bool) (the getters as well, if needed...?) to ensure that the lineSpacing and letterSpacing variables resulting from using the values set by "setLineSpacing and setLetterSpacing" are integers, to prevent the blur you can see here.

Preventing blurry text.

API Example

text_line->setLetterSpacing(1.1);
// Prevent horizontal blurring
text_line->setLetterSpacingRounding(true);


text_paragraph->setLetterSpacing(1.1);
text_paragraph->setLineSpacing(1.1);
// Prevent horizontal blurring
text_paragraph->setLetterSpacingRounding(true);
// Prevent vertical blurring
text_paragraph->setLineSpacingRounding(true);
