Improve scrolling actions in the animation track editor

- Implement timeline scrobbling using Alt + Mouse wheel anywhere in the
  animation track editor.
  - Snap settings are followed, and precise snapping can be obtained by also
    holding down Shift.
  - This modifier wasn't used by anything in the animation editor.
- Allow zooming by using Ctrl + Mouse wheel on the timeline itself.
  - Previously, this was only possible on the track area, not the timeline.
