Improve how text and object names are displayed

Space Haven Planner
Right now, specially on large ships, texts are really hard to read. We need to think about an UX that makes things easier to understand, without having text overlapping each other.

Maintainer triage (2026-01-15)
Order: 9/16
Impact: Medium
Estimate: S/M
Tags: priority:P2, rendering, ux
Summary: Reduce label clutter: readable names without overlapping text on large designs.
Notes:
- Current canvas labels draw full names at zoom>=10 and allow overflow, causing overlap/clutter on large ships.
- Options: toggle labels, show-on-hover/selection, truncate/clip, or smarter label placement.
