New MenuItem have no tooltips anymore #1259

Description

@fabrice-aeschbacher

Since v47.0, the old MenuItem from @siemens/element-ng/common is deprecated, in favour of the new version from @siemens/element-ng/menu. Problem: the new MenuItem has no tooltip anymore.

It can be argued that tooltips are not useful on a mobile device (*), but removing them also for Desktop is hard. Tooltips are very useful for embedding documentation: a MenuItem label is generally short (often one word, rarely two, never more). While the tooltip is generally a complete sentence aimed at detailing the short label.

(*) note that https://element.siemens.io/components/status-notifications/tooltip/ stil exist
