Before this change, vertical scroll was always discrete. At least on Wayland, this caused extremely fast scrolling on touchpads (that send lots of small axis events) and on mice with high-resolution wheels (that also send lots of small axis events). After this change, all of this scrolling works correctly, at a speed matching regular wheels.
I adjusted the Wayland PointerAxis multiplier in such a way as to preserve the scrolling speed for regular mice. I don't know about other backends, they may need to be adjusted too.
