It should be possible to position a dcc.Tooltip from figure coordinates rather than screen coordinates #998

Description

@alexlenail

Right now, it's only possible to position a tooltip from the bbox object argument passed to a hover or click callback, which contains screen coordinates. It should be possible to position a tooltip with figure coordinates, so that you can position a tooltip without the user having the mouseover or click a particular object before showing the tooltip.
