Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Be in a voice/video call with someone.
2. In that chat, hover over a message so its hover menu shows, and then hover over one of the react/reply/reply-in-thread buttons.

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?

The hovered button should highlight and show a tooltip.

#### What happened instead?

The hovered button highlights and shows a tooltip, but the call element in the upper half of the screen becomes maybe 10px wider to the right for a moment, causing the whole page to readjust briefly.

### Operating system

Windows

### Application version

Element version: 1.10.11 Olm version: 3.2.8

### How did you install the app?

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. First reproduce the resize while hovering the message reaction, reply, or thread buttons during a call on Windows, then trace the affected call area and hover-menu layout. Done means the button still highlights and shows its tooltip without changing the call area's width or shifting the page.
