I hope that for each polygonal data annotation, only one label appears per feature.

Description
**mapbox-gl-js version**:2.15.0
### Question
When I use polygonal data for labeling, I find that the labeling positions are split into multiple labels due to tile cutting. However, I expect only one label to appear for each polygon. Is there a solution to this issue?
As shown in the following image, the area is split into multiple tiles, resulting in multiple labels.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Reproduce the polygon-label behavior using polygonal vector-tile data in mapbox-gl-js 2.15.0, then trace label placement across tile boundaries; done means each polygon displays only one label despite being split between tiles.
