Preview an operator's result when hovering it on the canvas #9057

Description

@kz930

Feature Summary

To see what an operator produced, a user has to select it and open the result panel, even for a quick look at a few rows while building a workflow.

Part of #9052.

Proposed Solution or Design

As settled in #8842: resting the pointer on an operator for a moment shows a small card beside it with its first rows, its error, or how to keep a result the run did not keep. The card should not open while the pointer only passes over, drags, or clicks, and the preview can be turned off under Layers.
