TextBounds is completely incorrect for text with many lines

Title pretty much says it all. TextBounds is not even close to correct. I’ve created a simple repro place that allows you to easily test various scenarios and see how wrong it is. It is dramatically less than the real value.

Hi, thanks for the report! Unfortunately this misalignment is due to a internal cap on number of glyphs could be processed and displayed on one text object to compromise system limit and we are hard to remove the limit for in the short-term. We might re-visit this in the future or have optional support for this scenario.
