.SetTitle() does not work whatsoever on a Modal.

Quick PoC:

package main

import (
	`github.com/rivo/tview`
)

func main() {

	var app *tview.Application = tview.NewApplication()
	var m *tview.Modal = tview.NewModal()

	m.SetText("blerh")
	m.SetTitle("Foobar")
	app.SetRoot(m, false)
	app.Run()
}

As seen, blerh shows up, but no title on the Modal with Foobar does:

(This occurs on go.mod version github.com/rivo/tview v0.0.0-20240204151237-861aa94d61c8)
