[Bug 1982885] [NEW] Firefox does not scroll with touch input

[Matthew Lovibond]

Public bug reported:

Firefox does not scroll with the usual touch gesture of swiping up or
down on the screen. This action just selects text on the page as though
the left mouse button was depressed and the cursor moved across the
page.

lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Release:	22.04

Snapstore version 103.0-1 latest stable

Possibly related to being packaged as a snap (have noticed this
behaviour on Fedora using the firefox snap).

It's still possible to scroll by dragging the scrollbar but this
essentially breaks firefox on touch systems
