fix(tooltip): prevent delayed tooltip after target moves

[viktorkombov]

Closes #17465

Description

Fixes delayed tooltips opening after their target has moved away from the pointer.

This could occur when layout changes—particularly during grid virtualization—move or recycle a target during showDelay without the browser emitting pointerleave. The pending timeout would then open a stale tooltip, sometimes resulting in incorrectly positioned or multiple visible tooltips.

Implementation

For delayed hover interactions, IgxTooltipTargetDirective now:

• Tracks the latest pointer position.
• Uses elementFromPoint() before opening.
• Opens only when the target remains under the pointer.
• Supports targets inside both document and Shadow DOM roots.

The validation is limited to delayed hover interactions. Zero-delay tooltips, focus/click triggers, showTooltip(), and coordinate-less synthetic events preserve their previous behavior.

The fix is contained within the tooltip directive and does not introduce grid-specific handling.

Tests

Added regression coverage verifying that:

• A delayed tooltip remains closed when its target moves away.
• Zero-delay hover interactions are not hit-tested.
• The latest pointer position is used before opening.

Tooltip test suite: 67/67 passing.

Components Affected

Tooltip, including tooltip targets rendered inside virtualized Grid, Tree Grid, and Hierarchical Grid cells.

Pull request overview

Fixes a tooltip timing edge case where a delayed hover tooltip could still open after its target moved (e.g., during grid virtualization/scroll) without a corresponding pointerleave, leading to stale/mispositioned or multiple visible tooltips.

Changes:

• Track the last known pointer coordinates for delayed hover-triggered shows and revalidate via elementFromPoint() right before opening.
• Add Shadow DOM-aware hit testing by using the element’s root (getRootNode()) when available, with a safe fallback.
• Add regression unit tests covering target movement during delay, no hit-testing for zero-delay, and using the latest pointer position.
