For the "Around point" and "Cartographic" placement modes, this adds a new optional setting for the maximum distance of the labels from the feature. It's used together with the existing distance setting to define a range of distances at which labels may be placed from their corresponding point features. This adds more flexibility to the placement for these layers, ultimately allowing for more labels to be placed in busy maps. When the layer is set to the "around point" mode, then label candidates which are closer to the point will always be prefered over those which are further away. When the layer is set to the "cartographic" mode, then the default behavior is also to prioritize closer labels. A new combo box allows users to control the priority, with an option for prefering position ordering. If this option is set, then candidates at the corresponding positions (eg top left) are preferred regardless of how far they are from the point, with the labelling falling back to alternate positions only when no labels can be placed up to the maximum label distance.
