Optional extra steps/info to reproduce

The issue is easy to see on the Chart.js demo application. One very obvious example is this one:

1. Go to: https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/samples/legend/events.html
2. Hover over the "Red" pie slice
3. Quickly hover over the legend item labeled "Green"

Current behavior: The "Red" tooltip is still visible.
