tdesktop uses AbstractTooltipShower
When the chat title in the top bar is too long and gets elided, hovering over it now shows a tooltip with the full name. This works for both regular chats and forum topics. Fixes telegramdesktop#1502

Problem
When a chat title is too long, it gets truncated with ellipsis in the top bar. There is no way to view the full name without resizing the window — and even that doesn't always help.
Solution
Added
QEvent::ToolTiphandling inTopBarWidget. When hovering over the title area, a tooltip with the full chat name is shown only if the text is actually truncated (maxWidth() > availableWidth).Works for both regular chats and forum topics.
