Interactive tooltips.

GtkSourceHover allows a [class`View`] to provide contextual information. When enabled, if the user hovers over a word in the text editor, a series of registered [iface`HoverProvider`] can populate a [class`HoverDisplay`] with useful information.

To enable call [method`View`.get_hover] and add [iface`HoverProvider`] using [method`Hover`.add_provider]. To disable, remove all registered providers with [method`Hover`.remove_provider].

You can change how long to wait to display the interactive tooltip by setting the [property`Hover`:py:data::hover-delay<GtkSource.Hover.props.hover_delay>] property in milliseconds.
