Thanks, Simon.

It was helpful.
I modified it and added the drc pad test.

The exact text shape is now used.

Currently, the drc test calculation is not optimized, so it needs
refinements
(mainly avoid to test the full text shape, when tracks or pads are
outside the text bounding box)

However the calculation time is low ( < 1 second), even with complex and
large boards.
