bug#26347: patch for mwheel.el

[Tak Kunihiro]

>> During not only horizontal scroll but also vertical scroll,

I see your point in regard to (1).  Yes, if `mwheel-scroll’ can scroll right
or left like horizontal-scroll-bar does, turing off auto-hscroll-mode is not
necessary for case (1).  Give me time to understand code of 
horizontal-scroll-bar.

In regard to (2), let’s say you have a very long line and your point is at the 
end
of line in a window.  The next line is short and even the end of line is not 
shown
in the window.  The third line is very long again.

When you move vertical-scroll-bar down, eventually the long line disappears
above the top of window.  The point moves to the end of the next short line.
As a consequence, you see scope shifted.  The patch tries to keep the scope to
be the same.  To do so, auto-hscroll-mode was set to off.
