Ability to show/hide mouseover tooltip via API

See original GitHub issue

It would be great to be able to show and hide tooltips via a C3 API call. Something like chart.tooltip.show(), chart.tooltip.hide(). Each of those methods would then take a JSON object as its only parameter allowing the setting of the x-axis tooltip value to show/hide, position, and the particular dataset if tooltip grouping is turned off (with no parameters in .hide() meaning hide all).

It would enable developers an easy way to do something like what Datadog does in its time series charts where mousing over one chart also shows the same x-axis value of a different chart. A very important feature when comparing multiple charts that might have the same time range on the x-axis.
