fix: seed horizontal window virtualizers from window.scrollX - #1383
The window virtualizer in the React, Vue, Svelte, Solid, Lit and Angular adapters defaults initialOffset to window.scrollY, even when horizontal: true. observeWindowOffset doesn't report a position when it subscribes, so that value is the offset until the first scroll event. If a horizontal window list mounts while the page is scrolled down, it renders the columns at the vertical scroll position. With scrollY = 1000, scrollX = 300 and 50px items, the first rendered item is 19 instead of 5, so the visible area is empty until the user scrolls.
Each adapter now reads window.scrollX when horizontal is set and window.scrollY otherwise. That's the same read observeWindowOffset does, and the Marko adapter already does it this way. An explicit initialOffset still overrides the default. In Vue and Angular I resolve the options once in the existing computed/options callback so the default can see horizontal.
I added a test for the React, Vue and Lit adapters (their suites run in jsdom). Each one fails on main with expected 19 to be 5 and passes with the fix. Svelte and Solid run their tests in node, where document is undefined, and Angular has no unit tests, so those three are covered by the same one-line change and tsc.
vitest run in react-virtual (12 passed), vue-virtual (5), lit-virtual (15), svelte-virtual (10), solid-virtual (1)

Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Horizontal window virtualizers now initialize their scroll position from the horizontal window offset. Vertical virtualizers continue to use the vertical offset.
Tests
Added coverage verifying that horizontal virtualizers start at the expected scroll position across supported frameworks.
Window virtualizer adapters now initialize the offset from window.scrollX in horizontal mode and window.scrollY otherwise. Tests cover horizontal initialization in Lit, React, and Vue. A changeset declares patch releases for six packages.
The six adapters use window.scrollX for horizontal mode and window.scrollY otherwise. Tests verify horizontal offsets in Lit, React, and Vue. The changeset declares patch releases for the six packages.
Horizontal window virtualizers now start from the correct scroll axis, which fixes the main bug. Two edge cases remain: changing the axis while a Svelte or Lit virtualizer is disabled, and React SSR hydration with a restored horizontal scroll position. Both are narrow and worth fixing, but neither should block the main improvement.

Read the current axis when initializing the offset.
The callback captures the constructor’s options, but setOptions replaces the controller’s stored options. If a controller starts with horizontal: true and enabled: false, then is enabled with horizontal: false, it reads scrollX instead of scrollY. Core then writes that value to the vertical window position, which can move the page. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
Make the default callback read the virtualizer’s current axis.

Right: in the Lit and Svelte adapters this default is created once, so it keeps reading the axis the virtualizer was created with. Core only reads initialOffset while scrollOffset is unset (on first use, and again after the virtualizer has been disabled), so this shows up when horizontal changes through setOptions and the offset is then re-initialized, for example disabled and re-enabled on the other axis.
Core passes the instance to scrollToFn, observeElementRect, observeElementOffset and measureElement, but not to initialOffset, so these two adapters can't read the live option without a core change. If you'd like, I can make core call initialOffset(this) and have each window adapter read instance.options.horizontal, either here or in a follow-up.
@Ishkirat-Singh Thanks for tracing this. Please fix it in this PR: the change can introduce a wrong offset when a controller switches from horizontal to vertical.
Passing the instance to initialOffset is a reasonable approach, but it changes the public core API. An adapter-only fix may be smaller: refresh the default callback when options change, while preserving any user-provided initialOffset.
Please add Lit and Svelte regression tests that reset the offset while disabled, change the axis, and re-enable the virtualizer. Also test explicit initialOffset overrides. If you change core, please check compatibility with existing zero-argument callbacks and direct callers.

Keep the initial render consistent during hydration.
With initialRect, a restored nonzero scrollX can produce different server and client item ranges. React may then regenerate the tree. This can happen when scrollY is zero, where the previous default matched the server offset.
Preserve the server offset during hydration, then adopt the browser offset without scrolling to zero. Preserve explicit offsets and client-only initialization.

This is the trade-off vertical lists already have: with initialRect the server renders at 0 and the client starts from the live window.scrollY. This change gives horizontal lists the same behaviour with scrollX, instead of reading the vertical position, so I'd keep hydration handling out of this PR.

@Ishkirat-Singh Agreed. This change aligns horizontal initialization with the existing vertical behavior. The hydration mismatch remains a possible trade-off, but we can leave hydration handling out of this PR.

Same as the Lit thread: this default is created once here too, and reading the live axis would need core to pass the instance to initialOffset. Happy to do that if you want it.

@Ishkirat-Singh Yes, please address this case. The callback is created once, but core can invoke it after setOptions changes the axis.
Passing the instance through core is one option. A core API change is not required, though: the Svelte adapter could keep the current horizontal value in sync with setOptions and let the default callback read it.
Please add a test that changes the axis before enabling the virtualizer, with different scrollX and scrollY values. Please also preserve explicit initialOffset overrides.
