Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Kinda? I want on_scroll_up and on_scroll_down in custom but that doesn't seem to work according to my testing

Describe the solution you'd like
Support for https://github.com/JakeStanger/ironbar/wiki/configuration-guide#32-module-level-options ! Should be quite simple I think.

Additional context
Why is it on_click instead of on_click_left in custom, very confusing

This would be good for consistency, happy to add this in.

Probably not - the two are independent systems that work differently, hence why they have a different set of options from each other currently. The ideal way to implement this would be to make them share the same options/responsible code but that will require some refactoring.

This got missed when I changed the module-level option's name for consistency. I'll get that fixed, thanks for spotting.

Thanks! Although it seems like on_scroll_up and on_scroll_down in the slider widget doesn't work

    $volume = {
        type = "custom"
        bar = [ 
            {
                type = "slider"
                class = "volbar"
                length = 100
                max = 100
                on_change = "!wpctl set-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ $0%"
                on_scroll_down = "wpctl set-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ 2%-"
                on_scroll_up = "wpctl set-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ 2%+"
                on_click_right = "pavucontrol"
                value = "0:/home/kyle/.config/ironbar/scripts/volume"
                show_if = $check_sound_state
            }
        ]
    }

For some reason the scale automatically binds to the scroll event, then does nothing with it, so the parent EventBox never receives the event.

I'm going to implement proper scrolling logic into the scale component, so it will just work to change the value on scroll without any config. There'll be a step config option to go with it to configure how much it steps by.

This is what was resolved by #119, not #115 as it was linked.
