KFilePlacesItem: Add tooltip

Kai Uwe Broulik requested to merge work/kbroulik/kfileplaces-tooltip into master

Shows the place's path and mountpoint, if applicable, as a tooltip. In case of loop devices, it shows the backing file path (e.g. path to the disk image) rather than /dev/loop123.

Show label in tooltip if it is elided

Exactly how Dolphin does it

However, the tooltips are somewhat annoying imho as they show up when you hover and then remain as you move the mouse about. Dolphin treats each place as an individual item, so the tooltip show timer is reset every time you move between items. Hence RFC as I am not sure we want to have it like this...
