Further research reveils that those notifications are only sent if the
tooltip specifies LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK as its text, meaning that that tooltip
text is dynamic and the parent control is requesting the OS to call back
into the control to get the tooltip's current text when needed.  If the text
is not using a callback, then the text is static and
TTN_GETDISPINFO/TTN_NEEDTEXT is not needed, thus not sent.
