Research direction
Investigate how road labels are currently rendered in the SVG output. Look at the usvg library documentation for textPath support. Identify the module responsible for label placement (likely in the map rendering pipeline). Implement textPath for curved road labels, following existing SVG generation patterns. Check comments in issue #173 for any hints or discussions.
