qt: remove general tooltop on module checkbox group

With module selection controls which feature a groupbox of module
checkboxes, if individual modules have their own longtext, that is
displayed in a tooltip when hovering on them; for all others, the help
text for the entire control (groupbox) gets displayed, which is just
confusing from a UX point of view.

This removes the general groupbox tooltip, thus fixing this.

It remains for the textbox portion of the control however, so hovering
over that still provides the helptext!
