wxWebView scrolling functions do not seem to work

[Martin Corino]

@vadz While testing the WebView sample on GTK and MacOS I noticed the scrolling functions LineUp, LineDown, PageUp, PageDown do not seem to work on either platform.

Is that expected behavior currently? I cannot find a note about that in the docs.

Sorry, no idea, you need to look at the sources of various backends to see
if they implement this.

Afaict NONE of the backends implements any special code for this. All platforms do implement basic wxWindow scrolling functionality (wxWindow::ScrollLines and wxWindow::ScrollPages) but that does not seem to do anything for the wxWebView window.

The WebView sample however implements some demo code intended to scroll the WebView window so I was under the impression this should work somehow but I guess this code is bogus.
