[Feature request] Support for horizontal scroll wheel

Right now, on RawTherapee, you can edit a slider value with shift+scroll .

Some mouses, like the R.A.T.7, the MX Master from Logitech, most touchpad and probably the Apple Magic Mouse supports horizontal scrolling.

It would be neat if you could “scroll the slider” with the dedicated horizontal scroll control, without holding shift.

I haven’t found docs about this, but I think this is a standard HID input. This is what I dumped from my MX Master 3. I don’t know what does it means but maybe it helps. (Ask me if you needs more dumps or test)
