emacs-29 a9b46bb25df: Include a help-echo for flymake's modeline counters

[Eli Zaretskii]

branch: emacs-29
commit a9b46bb25df38e0ca89784afac230408b620b2dc
Author: Spencer Baugh <sbaugh@catern.com>
Commit: Eli Zaretskii <eliz@gnu.org>

    Include a help-echo for flymake's modeline counters
    
    This helps clarify what each of these numbers mean.  This is inspired
    by 'compilation-mode-line-errors' which does the same.
    * lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake--mode-line-counter): Add
    help-echo to mode line properties.  (Bug#64424)
