Fixes: #29142

This PR addresses an issue where the draggable legend in Matplotlib becomes stuck to the cursor after a scroll event while hovering over the legend. To "unstick" the legend, users must left-click, which is unintuitive.

This fixes the bug. I have two questions though:

  1. Why does a scroll_event trigger on_pick? That seems unintuitive to me.
  2. Are there possibly other events that come into on_pick and need to be escaped as well.
