[webkit-dev] Mouse wheel event precision

[David Hyatt]

I think for now I'm just going to implement the "minimum line movement of 1" and only do it at the DOM event level.  That way if we use the wheel event internally (e.g., for a non-native scrollview implementation) it will still do the right thing.
