Disable Tool Tip Mouse Pointer Follow

• I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

What problem does this feature solve?

The tooltip has a jerky/stuttering animation behavior. When animations are disabled it draws attention to the tooltip values displaying a similar behavior when the mouse pointer moves.

Adding a feature to disable the mouse pointer follow behavior would circumvent this as the component would only be rendered once, preventing the perceived stutter caused by a re-render.

What does the proposed API look like?

<Tooltip followPointer={false} />

I am using the word “pointer” in a sense that is synonymous with cursor. followCursor might be a better name, but the idea would be that the tool tip would not move around with the mouse cursor/pointer. I chose the name based on this API: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/tooltip.followPointer

@jwlms Thank you for feedback. AFAIK, it seems to extremely hard to achieve it by workaround 😢
