Feature request: add option to use token image for hover image #60

Right now Image Hover adds the option to: (1) Hide image hover art (2) Provide a specific image to use

I'd like to request a third option, (3) use the token image

Use case: Sometimes I want to create on a scene a named NPC that is based on a specific monster type, e.g. I might take a basic "Mage" in dnd5e and give him a name and a specific image. I don't want to change anything about the basic sidebar Mage, but I do want to change the token image (and hover image) for a specific unlinked token.

Another example is a doppelganger. The monster has an image, but he changes to look like other creatures. You can change the token appearance for this, but then if you hover over the token it gives it away by showing the doppelganger image for the hover art.

To do the above now you need to change the token image (I'm using the Token Variant Art module to manage this now), then open up the token properties, copy the Image URL, go down to the "use specific image for hover" open, and paste the URL in there. This is workable, but it is cumbersome. Instead, I was hoping for an option for a checkbox to just automatically use the token image as the hover image, or maybe change the "hide image art" option from a checkbox into a dropdown with several options: hide, use token image, etc.

Thanks! I know you said you're no longer playing, so I appreciate any consideration!
