Remarks

This manager provides a shared tooltip instance and associates tooltip content with multiple views. It centralizes hover handling (MouseEnter / MouseLeave) and ensures that only one tooltip is visible at a time.

ToolTip content is defined per View using a factory (Func<TResult>), allowing dynamic content creation on each display.

The manager avoids adding state directly to View by maintaining an external registry.
