TextMetrics.wordWrap() ignores TextStyle.letterSpacing

See original GitHub issue

Hey everyone, I found an issue with TextMetrics.wordWrap, which also effects TextMetrics.measureText & TextMetrics.measureFont. The wordwrap function does not account for letterSpacing values larger than 0.

I will make a pull request with the fix

I found that my pull request has improved the calculation but not completely fixed it. I am working on a slightly improved version.

Also want to confirm that this is a bug that needs fixing and not an issue with how I was using TextMetrics??
