Yves Biener d4cc520826 fix(element/scrollable): display and user interaction
Fix initial render to show scrollbar immediately if required. Show and
hide scrollbar correctly when content size or terminal size changes. Add
keybindings for scrolling similar to pager keybindings.

# zterm TUI Library
`zterm` is a terminal user interface library (*tui*) to implement terminal (fullscreen or inline) applications.
> [!caution]
> Only builds using the zig master version are tested to work.
## Demo
Clone this repository and run `zig build --help` to see the available examples. Run a given example as follows:
```sh
zig build --release=safe -Dexample=demo run
```
> [!tip]
> Every example application can be quit using `ctrl+c`.
See the [wiki](https://gitea.yves-biener.de/yves-biener/zterm/wiki) for a showcase of the examples and the further details.
## Usage
To add or update `zterm` as a dependency in your project run the following command:
```sh
zig fetch --save git+https://gitea.yves-biener.de/yves-biener/zterm
```
Add the dependency to your module as follows in your *build.zig*:
```zig
const zterm: *Dependency = b.dependency("zterm", .{
.target = target,
.optimize = optimize,
});
```
### Documentation
A wiki should be created containing a bright overview of the structure and usage
of the library. For details it should refer to the examples. The documentation
should be minimal in terms of updateability in case the library changes. Maybe
some documentation could be derived from the code documentation (there is a tool
for this if I recall correctly).
