fix(ScrollControls): resolve infinite scrolling issues across browsers

[kaylaa0]

Why

There were a couple of issues with the current infinite scrolling behavior mentioned in #2507:

• On certain resolutions, reaching the end would not trigger wrapping, as also mentioned in <ScrollControls infinite/> current scroll position is less than scrollThreshold, leads to unable reset to top. #1615
• On initial page load, backward scroll wrapping wasn't possible
• After wrapping backward on some resolutions, forward scrolling would stop working
• At the scroll edges, even though infinite scrolling was enabled, wrapping would not occur
• In a specific case on Chrome, scrollTop would never reach the actual maximum; it would always be one pixel short

These are the fixes applied for each of the issues above:

• This happened because .scrollLeft is often rounded to an integer or 0.5 precision. To ensure consistent behavior across browsers, we now explicitly floor the value so it reflects the actual maximum scrollLeft can reach. This has been tested on Chrome, Firefox, and Edge
• disableScroll was incorrectly set to true on load. It should be false initially, since we already handle the first run using a separate mechanism. This flag is only needed later to prevent event bubbling
• The issue was caused by setting scrollLeft to scrollLength, which is incorrect. It should instead be set to scrollThreshold - 1. The minus one acts as padding because just as wrapping backward, we don't set the scroll to 0, but to 1, so the browser triggers onScroll on the next wheel event
• Horizontal scrolling with the mouse wheel is handled by listening to onWheel and updating scrollLeft, which normally triggers onScroll. However, if we are already at the edge, this doesn’t happen. We now manually call onScroll when at the scroll boundary to ensure wrapping
• On Chrome, the scroll position never reaches the true maximum and always stops just short of it. Combined with inconsistent scroll handling across browsers, this caused issues in our custom infinite scroll implementation. We now listen to onWheel not only for horizontal scrolling but also during scroll wrapping. This way, when the browser fails to trigger onScroll near the edge, we can manually call it to ensure wrapping occurs

Added a new commit with a fix for an issue where the scroll value wasn’t adjusting on window resize correctly when horizontal mode was enabled.

This would be useful if we can merge in, meantime I just forked your branch, ty!
