Feature summary

An option that lets you set the ms duration of the forced cooldown between scroll events when scrolling on bar widgets.

Motivation / use case

While having a delay makes sense when scrolling on a touchpad, on a mousewheel with distinct steps, it's very unintuitive that the amount of scroll steps does not equal to the amount of actions performed.
Currently, when you do a quick scroll "burst" with a mousewheel on the workspaces (to change workspaces) or audio (to change volume), only some of the scroll inputs will result in their respective actions.

Proposed solution

Add a setting that lets you configure the cooldown/delay before scroll events are accepted again.

Alternatives considered

there are some janky scripting workarounds but probably not worth the effort.
