File paths not shown when hovering over tab names within a remote #42344

Summary

File paths are not shown when hovering over tab names, but only when using a remote. They are shown as expected when developing on a local machine.

As far as I remember, this isn't a recent bug -- I believe it's been like this for a while and don't remember if this ever worked correctly for remotes 🤔

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. File -> Open Remote ...
  2. Connect to a remote (in my case, a GitHub codespace)
  3. Open several files after connecting to the remote
  4. Hover over the tab names near the top of the editor window

Expected Behavior:

Hovering over the tab name shows a box with the file path.

Actual Behavior:

Hovering over the tab name doesn't show a box with the file path. Expand below for a GIF showing behavior first on a local machine (shows file path = expected) and on a remote (doesn't show file path = unexpected).
