Hinting makes text looks like zalgo.

See original GitHub issue

Description

I’m evaluating your library for my project. But when i tried to turn hinting on - text got broken: _six Without hinting it’s looks like this: _six

Steps to Reproduce

public static void Main(string[] args)
{
    var fonts = new FontCollection();

    FontFamily font = fonts.Add(@"Fonts\OpenSans-Regular.ttf");

    using var img = new Image<Rgba32>(1024, 800);
    img.Mutate(x => x.Fill(Color.White));

    var str = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. 0123456789";

    var off_y = 0f;

    for (int size = 5; size < 64; size++)
    {
        RenderText(font.CreateFont(size), str, img, off_y += size + 1);
    }

    using FileStream fs = File.Create("_six" + ".png");
    img.SaveAsPng(fs);
}

public static void RenderText(Font font, string text, Image<Rgba32> img, float y)
{
    string path = IOPath.GetInvalidFileNameChars().Aggregate(text, (x, c) => x.Replace($"{c}", "-"));
    string fullPath = IOPath.GetFullPath(IOPath.Combine("Output", IOPath.Combine(path)));

    IPathCollection shapes = TextBuilder.GenerateGlyphs(text, new TextOptions(font)
    {
        Origin = new Vector2(50f, y),
    });
    img.Mutate(x => x.Fill(Color.Black, shapes));
}
