Description

From MSFT:37868165

> Hovering over the close window button in Windows Terminal for a certain period of time will show two hover popups both showing "Close".

Looks like we get the xaml popup and the user32 one. Easiest fix would be to get rid of the xaml one, but then it would be different from the others.

We may want to explore not having a user32 titlebar at all in tabs in titlebar mode.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the duplicate "Close" popups when hovering over the Windows Terminal close button. Trace the XAML popup and user32 titlebar paths mentioned in the issue, then establish which titlebar behavior is intended; done means the close button shows only the intended popup without regressing the other titlebar modes.
