Description
When using the "Normal and Outline" (or "Outline") text style and typing in Korean, the letter strokes are outlined instead of syllables, and since strokes overlap each other, a visual glitch occurs (shown on the screenshot on the left in comparison with how text normally looks without the outline on the right). I'm specifically saying the syllables should be outlined, not letters, because letters can be overlapped in syllables and produce the same visual glitch (albeit less frequent) if outlined.

To Reproduce
Use the "Normal and Outline" or "Outline" text style and type in Korean

Pinta uses the Pango library to render text via Cairo (https://docs.gtk.org/PangoCairo/pango_cairo.html), so this may not be an issue specifically in Pinta's code. Or, it may be just a unavoidable side effect of how Pango draws text via Cairo, e.g. if each of those strokes is drawn and outlined separately
