Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I think it would be better visual if during debug/emulation Cutter will show value of vars/args/regs/mems in popup window when mouse over like this:

1

And the same for decompilation listing.

Describe the solution you'd like

These values could be got from afvd command.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing debug views and tooltip system in Cutter. Look at how the `afvd` command is used in other parts of the codebase. Implement a mouseover popup that shows variable/argument values by executing `afvd` and displaying the result in a tooltip.
