Describe the bug

The scrolling effect erratically jumps/warps when reaching the top or bottom.

It seems to happen only on macOS using the touchpad for scrolling.

The closest, seemingly most similiar other bug report: #6352, but they did not add details.

Code sample

Code
import flet as ft


def main(page: ft.Page):
    page.views.append(
        ft.View(
            controls=[
                ft.Column(
                    controls=[
                        ft.TextField(
                            label="First Name",
                        ),
                        ft.TextField(
                            label="Last Name",
                        ),
                    ],
                    scroll=ft.ScrollMode.AUTO,
                    height=100,
                ),
            ]
        )
    )
    page.update()


ft.app(main)

To reproduce

  1. Append a View to page that has a Column in it.
  2. Add some TextFields in it.
  3. Try to scroll it.

Expected behavior

The scrolling should stop smoothly and not jump back erratically.
