Improve video carousel scrolling experience for smoother navigation

Browse Source 
Refactors the Netflix grid component's horizontal scrolling implementation. Instead of using CSS transforms for manual positioning, it now utilizes the browser's native smooth scrolling behavior via `scrollBy` on a container with `overflow-x-auto`. This change aims to resolve issues where videos were not scrolling correctly and to provide a more fluid user experience. The `scrollContainerRef` is introduced to directly access the DOM element for scrolling. The component now relies on CSS to manage the display of the carousel items, eliminating the need for manual `translateX` state management and fixed video widths for calculation.
