basetextoverlay: Don't prevent placing vertical text

I think in case of vertical render we should still default to top-right, it's
just what makes the most sense, so perhaps we can find a middle way where we
default to that when vertical render is enabled and then people can still
override it via setting properties? (Don't think we need to worry too much
about restoring old defaults when it's disabled etc.)

Also, this was not introduced when composition meta was added but has been
there since the very beginning as far as I can tell, see:
