Add option for additional text in tooltip on mouseover

Description

Author: efenna

Description:
The current tooltip on mouseover shows the name of the link, but there would be many instances when a short description would be helpful as well, like a one sentance summary of a linked article, so that the user doesn't have to go to the linked article in order to understand what it is.

I envisage that the short description is written on the page being linked to (the target), and when the link is created on the 'current' page (eg [[target|alias]] a flag can indicate if the description should show in the mouseover, eg [[target|alias|hoverdesc]]
