Popover changes in 0.42.0 causes flickering

[havardla]

Describe the bug

When updating to 0.42.0 hovering over a button that triggers a popover causes the popover to trigger a re-render that causes flickering. This behavior is only happening on chromium based browser in a vite production build

Steps to reproduce the bug

A bit hard to reproduce since it only happens when we have this in production (cannot reproduce in localhost)

1. Add a button that sets an open state on a popover
2. Try to hit the button from the right side
3. This will cause the popover to flicker until the mouse hits the middle of the button
4. The Popover will no longer flicker until a site reload

Expected behavior

Popover to stay visible when hitting the right edge

Specifications

• Version: 0.42.0
• Browser: Chrome/Edge
• OS: WIndows 11

Additional context

We are running our application in radix using vite frontend tooling

Hello! Does this happen in version 0.41.5 as well, or did it only change in 0.42.0? Because I made some changes in 0.42 to try and fix another issue in another project where the popover would not render at all unless the showPopover call was delayed. I think maybe this change should be reverted

[havardla]

It does not happen in 0.41.5 that we had to revert down to

@havardla I have made a test release with a possible fix. Would it be possible for you to test this in your prod enviroment since I am unable to reproduce this locally? npm install @equinor/eds-core-react@next if this works I'll make a patch release asap 👍

Cannot seem to trigger the flickering now
