## Google Search Bar Info Popup Script

This script enhances the Google search experience by displaying a popup with advanced search tips around the Google search bar when it is hovered over, clicked, or focused. The popup can be manually controlled: it can be hidden using the `Ctrl + C` shortcut when the cursor is inside the search bar. The popup will disappear when the cursor moves away or when the search bar loses focus.

## Features

- Dynamically displays a list of advanced Google search tips.
- Popup appears on hover, click, or focus on the search bar.
- Popup can be manually hidden using the `Ctrl + C` shortcut when the cursor is in the search bar.
- Ensures that multiple rapid clicks do not open multiple instances of the popup.
- Popup remains visible until the mouse leaves the popup area or the search bar loses focus.
- Supports both English and Simplified Chinese based on user preferences.
- Custom styled components with dark mode detection.
- Automatically hides the popup on cursor out or by using keyboard shortcut.
