Support fast scrolling using a modifier key

See original GitHub issue

Downstream: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/78431

VS Code has a setting editor.fastScrollSensitivity which multiplies the scroll speed when a particular modifier is down. This should be pretty easy to implement, we need to think about how the API should look. We probably need a number for the multiplier and an enum for which modifier (see https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/78555).

@csurquin sure, this is a good one as it’s pretty well defined. You should be able to find all the places you need to add a setting for by following one of the existing settings, eg.

I think these are only the places where the scroll would need to be multiplied:
