Scatterplot: Optional hover text from a expression [Feature]

PR Description:

Description

In the processing algorithm "vector layer scatterplot", optionally add text that is shown on hover, such as the name of the feature. For more flexibility (i.e. to use several fields), a QGIS expression is used to define the text. This makes the algorithm much more useful for data exploration.
