Customize trackpad bindings for pan/zoom #194

I'm on a Mac and for me the natural ways of interacting with a plot are

At the moment, two-finger drag zooms and to pan, I have to press and hold two fingers down while dragging, which is a little bit awkward. Is was also surprised that these actions does not zoom/pan the data inside the axes, but rather zoom/pan the axes as a whole, within the plot window. I am not sure if this is as intended. Also, I have not figured out how to do a selection zoom.

Haha, tried to thumbs-up this issue and ended up removing my own thumbs-up from who knows when ago. At any rate I'd be very interested in more natural navigation. I'd be happy to give it a crack at a PR though I don't really know where to start. If I'm not mistaken Makie uses GLFW which seems to not yet have touch input released but there are efforts towards it: https://github.com/glfw/glfw/pull/1736.
