Do not lock scroll position while text is streaming #1092

Description

Problem

While assistant text is streaming, the conversation view appears to stay pinned to the live output. That makes it hard to scroll up and read earlier content while a response is still coming in.

Expected behavior

  • Users can freely scroll up while text is streaming without the view snapping back to the latest token.
  • Auto-follow should only happen when the user is already at or near the bottom, or after an explicit jump back to the latest message.
  • Streaming should not fight manual scroll position.

Why this matters

This makes long responses easier to review in real time and avoids a frustrating "scroll lock" feeling in the chat UI.
