KiCad 7 offsets text compared to KiCad 6
Description
Current behavior: KiCad 7 shifts the position of text relative to KiCad 6, at least in the gerbers that get exported. I am not sure if this is happening when KiCad 7 migrates the file and the positions are shifting in the kicad_pcb file itself, or if it is specific to gerber export. This is because I only have a way of diffing gerbers.
Here is a screenshot demonstrating what I mean:
Pink is KiCad 7.0.2, blue is KiCad 6. This is a visual diff of the gerbers produced by each respectively.
Expected behavior is for the text not to change.
