Description

**Problem Description**

The base `Component` class has a `padding` trait which is a `Property` that can take a number of different values, but `TextBoxOverlay` which is a subclass of `Component`, overrides this as an `Int`.

This is used as a margin around all sides of the text inside the component's rectangle, rather than the padding outside the rectangle.

A simple fix would be to re-name the trait on `TextBoxOverlay` to something else (eg. `text_padding` or `margin`).
