Description of the problem or steps to reproduce
When softwrap is false, I'd like a horizontal scroll bar for long lines. I'd like to click and drag on it like in GUIs.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in micro with softwrap disabled on the stated Ubuntu and terminal setup, then review the related issue #2699 for context. The payload names no files, tests, or entry points, so those must be identified before implementation. Done means long lines expose a horizontal scrollbar that can be clicked and dragged to scroll.
