Steps:
1. Hover over Elements tab
2. Wait for 3 seconds

Actual:
"Element" tooltip is shown.

Expected:
No tooltip is shown.

Notes:
The tooltip here is redundant. It doesn't display any new information. We no longer truncate tab names so the tooltip should be removed.

I think a simpler solution would be to just not use the `displayName` for the `title` if a `title` isn't provided in the constructor.

instead of
```
    this.title = title || displayName;
```
we could just have
```
    this.title = title;
```

We should still allow non-pinned `WI.TabBarItem` to set a `title` if they desire something different from the `displayName`.

This is no longer an accurate description of this change.

Why do we have to remove the attribute if it's an empty string?  Is it bad for accessibility to have a `title=""` or even just a `title`?

From the user perspective, this is still accurate. I'm writing this changelog for users first.

We don't have to, it's just odd.
