Adds a `scroll` option (`"auto"` | `"none"`) to pointer-based actions (click, dblclick, hover, tap, dragTo/dragAndDrop, check, uncheck, setChecked) across Locator, Page, Frame and ElementHandle. When set to `"none"`, Playwright does not scroll the element into view and the action fails if the element is not already in the viewport, including not scrolling nested overflow containers. Fixes: microsoft#41421
