Debugging unwanted scrollbars in a web page often starts with identifying what element is having the scrollbar.
This is sometimes more difficult than it seems as many elements may be nested into each other, sharing the same size.

The idea of this feature is to make use of the markup-badges we already use for flexbox, grid, or events, by adding one for scrollable elements.

Detect when nodes are scrollable on the actor side, and use this
information to display new [scrollable] markup-badges in the inspector.
Also track this dynimically so badges are added/removed when necessary.
Hide this behind a pref for now, until this gets tested by users and
validated.
