If a `texture` attribute is specified for a TXT file, an attempt will be made to read it via `texture=ReadImage(read_info,exception);`. Later, when retrieving metrics via the `GetTypeMetrics` function, if this function fails (i.e., `status == MagickFalse`), the calling function will exit immediately but fail to release the texture object, leading to memory leakage.
