Steps to reproduce

1. Create a Tab group with a long name.
2. Type the first letter of the Tab group name in the Address bar.

Expected result

• We should see the entire Tab group name when hovered over similar to URLs.

Actual result

• The Name of the Tab group is truncated.

• This seems more of an enhancement than an actual bug, but the Tab group name is truncated in the Address bar dropdown.

Not a regression.

So there's two issues here:

• The tab group name should be limited to a certain number of characters/size, and we should use an ellipsis at the end to crop the button. Or the number of characters could be limited.
• When it's cropped, we should also provide a tooltip that shows the full name.
