Add scroll_index to Column

[ahuang11]

Closes #6083

import panel as pn

pn.extension()

def scroll_to_top(event):
    column.scroll_index = 100


column = pn.Column(
    *list(range(1000)),
    height=300,
    sizing_mode="fixed",
    scroll=True,
)
btn = pn.widgets.Button(name="Scroll to top", width=200, button_type="primary", on_click=scroll_to_top)
pn.Row(column, btn).servable()

(poorly named btn; should be scroll to index 100)

I think this should be implemented as a scroll_to_index method which sends an event to the frontend (e.g. like the HTML diff approach).
