📄 Description

Hello!
I noticed a huge input inconsistency when going from Sway -> MacOS:

The inverted scrolling (despite natural scrolling being disabled in MacOS)
Mouse sensitivity being extremely low (despite both systems using the exact same resolution)

I'm not a Rust developer, so I don't know what would be the best way to approach it - these are just tiny changes that made my systems feel consistent.
Ideally, the issue is somehow related to DPI and reading the system config, but I propose adding two new config options:

mouse_mod - a float value that the actual relative movement gets multiplied by on a given client
invert_scroll - a simple flag that inverts the scrolling direction so that you can make it consistent across platforms.

Right now the input-emulation is split away from the config, so I couldn't figure out a way to add these options without excessive coupling. Any comments are welcome.
