5.2.0: Popover - Unable to use `getInstance` on `.popover` element

Describe the issue

Regression from v5.1.3. Can no longer get the Popover instance from the .popover element itself.

e.g.

const popover = bootstrap.Popover.getInstance('.popover');

// popover will be null

it now only works when using it on the trigger, e.g.

const popover = bootstrap.Popover.getInstance('.popover-trigger');

// popover will contain the popover element

That’s what I thought, thank you @GeoSot!

Something like ???

  document.querySelectorAll('[data-bs-toggle="popover"][aria-describedby]').forEach((popover) => {
    bootstrap.Popover.getOrCreateInstance(popover).hide();
  });

(same for tooltip)
