Patch to postition the tooltip using the tip area in keyboard mode

When the tooltip is triggered using the keyboard, the widget allocation is used to position the tooltip window. If there's a tip area set in the widget we can use it instead of the widget allocation. It can be tested with testtooltips, 

 1.- select a row in the treeview
 2.- move the cursor to other widget
 3.- press CTRL + F1

tooltip is positioned under the treeview instead of under the selected row. Attached patch fixes it.

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are closing bugs that haven't seen activity in more than 5 years. If this issue is still imporant to you and
still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please consider creating a gitlab issue
for it.
