More descriptive tooltips of what Sub-surface values are

There are 3 values for Sub-surface, but the tooltip is the same for all three.

It would be great if the tooltip could say what the values are if they are X,Y,Z, or RGB or something else. :)

This issue isnt concerning only SSS but every input of every nodes

* @Shimoon * Agree, they are all missing. What makes subsurface confusing is there is also not label to the left. Like X,Y,Z 😅

More like "R,G,B" in this case :p

Another reason for a Tooltip description is to better look up values for different materials. For now it's unclear what values it is.

The Subsurface tooltip itself could also say something like "How deep light penetrate the material surface"
