ScrollingDetector emits signals when a ScrolledWindow starts and

'''
The scrolling detector sends signals when a scrolled window is scrolled and
when a scrolled window stops scrolling. Only one `scroll-start` signal will be
emitted until scrolling stops.
The `scroll-start` signal is emitted when scrolling begins and
The `scroll-end` signal is emitted when scrolling ends
Neither of these two signals have any arguments
Args:
scrolled_window (Gtk.ScrolledWindow): A GTK scrolled window object for which
scrolling is to be detected
timeout (int): time in milliseconds to establish the interval for which
scrolling is detected
