Polyfill for scrollIntoViewIfNeeded()

This gist provides polyfill code for the scrollIntoViewIfNeeded() Element method found on WebKit browsers.

Features

There is no particular requirement on the position in the hierarchy of the element being made visible with respect to any scrollable areas. Elements that are relatively positioned as well as nested scrollable areas are both supported.

Licence

The files test-horizontal.html and test-vertical.html are under an unknown licence by github user hsablonniere. The remaining code is copyright by jocki84 and distributed under both the CC BY and ISC licences.

Here is the TypeScript version if you need one, but not a polyfill.

Today it is much easier to polyfill "scrollIntoViewIfNeeded()":

if ( !Element.prototype.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded ) {
    Element.prototype.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded = function ( centerIfNeeded = true ) {
        const el = this;
        new IntersectionObserver( function( [entry] ) {
            const ratio = entry.intersectionRatio;
            if (ratio < 1) {
                let place = ratio <= 0 && centerIfNeeded ? 'center' : 'nearest';
                el.scrollIntoView( {
                    block: place,
                    inline: place,
                } );
            }
            this.disconnect();
        } ).observe(this);
    };
}

The original implementation (or is it my typescript conversion?) does not work properly in Firefox 101.0.1) - it causes unnecessary scroll if the list is long and the element is not in the middle.

New version by @nuxodin works fine! Thanks!
