It might make sense to never show a hovercard for a primitive type value. We could also change the cursor style to indicate whether hovering will provide any extra info or not.

This would also improve some of the performance issues we've seen inspecting Flutter Web apps, since less expression evaluations would need to be done. FYI @CoderDake @annagrin
