Allow toggling autoscroll on Github Actions build output

See original GitHub issue

Currently Github Actions always do automatic scroll to the bottom on any output. It’s fairly annoying when you noticed potential issue in an earlier step and want to check it out while the build is still running. It would be nice to have a control (with fixed position in regards to the viewport) that you could click to toggle the autoscroll on or off.

I’ll close this as it’s impossible to reliably prevent scrolling (without flickering, hacks, possibly-annoying bugs)

Already asked them, with no response so far.
