Description
**Describe the bug**
When using the highlight widget with a non-latin text, the highlight is misplaced. When the non-latin text is mixed with the Latin text, the highlight goes crazy to different points.
**Screenshots**
**Additional context**
This happens with Hebrew, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, Arabic. With the Cyrillic alphabet, it works as fine as the Latin alphabet.
This only happens with the canvas-kit renderer. The html renderer works fine.

Research direction
Reproduce the highlight widget on Flutter Web with the canvas-kit renderer using Hebrew, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, and Arabic, then compare the result with the HTML renderer and Latin or Cyrillic text. Trace the widget's text layout and rendering path; done means highlights remain correctly positioned for mixed and non-Latin text without regressing the working cases.
