Do not show tooltip of the block toolbar buttons when text label preference is enabled. #43936

See #42811

What?

This PR is a Proof Of Concept to illustrate a potential approach to address #42811

When the 'Show button text labels' preference is enabled, the block toolbar buttons show text instead of icons. However, they still display a tooltip (on hover and focus) that just repeats the visible text.

Why?

A tooltip that just repeats the visible text of the buttons is pointless and just clutters the UI. When 'Show button text labels' is enabled, the tooltip should not show, as done for the Top toolbar in #42676 / #42815

How?

For now, this PR shows a potential approach only for the 'block switcher' dropdown button, which is the first button within the block toolbar.

  • It retrieves the showIconLabels preference value from the preferencesStore.
  • Passes down the showIconLabels as value to be used for the showTooltip prop.

Feedback on a couple things would be greatly appreciated. Also, any suggestions for a batter approach is very welcome. Problems I see with this approach:

  • Is it OK to use the preferencesStore and add it to the block-editor package? I'm not sure that is desirable.
  • With this approach, the showTooltip prop needs to be explicitly set on all the buttons of the various components that are used within the block toolbar. This applies to both the post editor and the site editor. There's a lot (dozens?) of components that are used within the toolbar that would need to be changed. Is there any simpler, more generic, approach anyone can think of?

Testing Instructions

  • Edit a post.
  • Go to Options > Preferences, and enable 'Show button text labels'.
  • Select a block to make its toolbar appear.
  • Hover (or move focus to) the Block switcher within the toolbar.
  • Observe it does not show a tooltip.
  • Observe all the other buttons within the toolbar still show a tooltip.
  • Disable the 'Show button text labels' preference.
  • Hover (or move focus to) the Block switcher again.
  • Observe it does show a tooltip.

Note: as mentioned in #42815 buttons that are associated with a keyboard shortcut always display a tooltip, to visually expose the keyboard shortcut. This logic is in the Button component itself, see shouldShowTooltip. I'm not sure this is ideal when 'Show button text labels' is enabled, but for now I'm not going to change this logic.
