Maneesh Shukla 0eea85446b tooltips: Group tooltips for a smooth transition.
This commit introduces the use of createSingleton from the Tippy.js
library to group the tooltips of compose box formatting buttons. The
main benefit is that the hover delay only applies when you move the
cursor into the group for the first time — after that, tooltips show up
instantly as you move between buttons. It makes the whole experience
feel a lot smoother.

We store the singleton instance in a variable to avoid creating multiple
instances unnecessarily. Before initializing a new singleton, we destroy
the previous one to prevent memory leaks and ensure correct behavior.

Previously, each formatting button had its own independent tooltip with
separate delays, which made the experience feel sluggish and disjointed
when hovering across buttons.

Now, by sharing a delay timer across the grouped tooltips, the
transition feels more natural.

Fixes: #24825.
