I love this node but it looks funny with the words inside the box.

I thought it would be so much nicer on the top

Then It needs to scale right so i took care of that

This Icing on the cake is I wanted it to tell if there was no room left on the top based on `fontSize` and `lineWidth` it should be able to put it on the bottom automatically..... now it does

But what if a user want to over ride the top or bottom. that is now coverd too.

- `labelLocation` ( _string_ ) : The Location to place the label. Default: `top` or `bottom` . If this propery is not set it will default to `automatic`

Let me know what you think. updated html / js / and README.md
