[WebParagraph] Visual: Text doesn't animate smoothly #188321

Description

@mdebbar

During an animation, some letters keep jittering (maybe due to pixel snapping?). Open https://bouncing.web.app/?mode=webparagraph and notice the text keeps shifting slightly during animation.

This also happens in text fields when typing. While adding text to the end of the text field, existing text jitters on some keyboard strokes.

    It's mostly visible in the unusual "W" which seems to overlap with another letter ("H" perhaps). Skwasm is also affected, not just WebParagraph:

    This one in particular is a bug in the app. The "W"/"H" thing is happening on all renderers.
