Clipped tooltips of SEO Bar in the meta box #741
Description
How to reproduce the bug
Start with WP >= 6.7 and without any blocks registered that are less than v3 (the latter is to ensure the editor uses the iframe).
- Enable the setting "Display the SEO Bar in the SEO Settings meta box?"
- Open a post or page
- Try hovering or focusing the SEO bar segments to make their tooltips show
- Note that the taller tooltips get clipped from the top
Expected behavior
I suppose the tooltips should flip downward.
Screenshots
While likely even more obscure, I noticed it can also happen when the meta box is moved to the sidebar:

** Side note:**
The above screen shots are with the Light admin color scheme active and it's notable that the contrast is pretty low. I also tried the Sunrise theme which is better but has lower than recommended contrast as well. I'm not sure how all the schemes fare. It may be worth changing the tooltip color scheme decisions for improved contrast.
Additional context
I contribute to Gutenberg and worked on the latest meta box UI changes. The potential of this clipping issue was mentioned in the dev note announcing the new meta boxes UI:

I'm not a user of this plugin and happened across it while looking for a better well-used plugin to test meta boxes with—one that doesn't wreck the overview tables with too much extra stuff. I appreciated the plugin’s UI decisions so much that I felt compelled to report this. Keep up the great work!
