This PR introduces a new
scaleSmoothing
option to address visual instability during rapid pinch-zoom gestures on mobile devices.Problem: Fast pinch gestures on touchscreens caused trembling/jittering due to immediate scale changes between gesture events. Existing animation options weren't suitable for real-time gesture handling.

Solution:
scaleSmoothing: 0
- Immediate scale changes (existing behavior)scaleSmoothing: 0.5
- Blends 50% of new scale with 50% previous scale
