Description
### Tested versions
Doesn't work in 4.2 or 4.3 rc
### System information
Windows 11
### Issue description
The RichTextLabel shadow gets cut off by its own size.
### Steps to reproduce
If you create a Rich Text label and then set a styleBoxFlat style to it, and then add a shadow and offset it, the shadow gets clipped by the textbox's bounds. This doesn't happen with labels or panels.
### Minimal reproduction project (MRP)

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with a RichTextLabel using a StyleBoxFlat shadow and offset, then compare its clipping with Label and Panel as described. Confirm that the shadow is fully displayed outside the textbox bounds without changing the intended RichTextLabel content area.
