Tooltip: Don't crash on empty content

Commit 1f2011e removed a `try-catch` around triggering the `remove` handlers
in the `jQuery.cleanData` override. The `try-catch` was meant for old IE but it was
also catching an error coming from the tooltip `remove` handler depending on
being able to find a relevant tooltip. The `_find` method returns `null`, though,
when the tooltip cotent is empty.

Instead of restoring the `try-catch`, handle the `null` case in the `remove` handler.

Fixes jquerygh-1990
Closes jquerygh-1994
