Add a scroll speed setting

[413Michele]

It'd be useful to be able to change the scroll wheel speed of the mouse

I presume this would be a lines-per-scroll sort of setting. I'm not completely sure it's something standardized that we could affect, but it could be interesting.

Just wondering... will this setting also influence two-finger scrolling for touchpads?

[cassidyjames]

@mvandermade I don't even know if this is something GTK/LibInput provides. But if so, I would presume it would treat them differently, like it treats natural scrolling separately.

On Fedora I'm using https://gitlab.com/kirbykevinson/libinput-config. My /etc/libinput.conf is:

scroll-factor=0.6

I'm using a Magic Trackpad 2. The experience is much better than the default.
I'm not sure if that's any helpful in the case of eOS though.
