Remove textLength attribute - fixes cursor positioning issues

The textLength with lengthAdjust='spacing' approach was causing visual
positioning problems. While x coordinates were calculated correctly,
the browser's spacing adjustments shifted subsequent text visually,
causing cursor and text to appear offset.

Removed textLength entirely. Accepting slight visual gaps in horizontal
box-drawing lines is preferable to cursor misalignment.

Version bump to 0.3.10
