Bug description

When tooltip is displayed and the element on which the tooltip was shown is hidden, tooltip persists.

Reproduction

CodePen link: https://codepen.io/amanagr/pen/xxgPJye

(Just hover over the button, the button will hide itself after 5s)

Someone else also requested this in #419.

This sort of thing is your responsibility to handle rather than the library's.

Can you add an option in hideAll which someone can call periodically like a cron job which destroys tooltips whose reference elements are no longer present in DOM or displayed?

or any way I can access all the mountedInstances directly.

I do think this discussion should be documented on the plugin page.
