The reason window-scroll-functions aren't run in both of these test
cases is that what happens there is not considered "scrolling".
Scrolling is informally defined as either an explicit call to a
function that scrolls the window, or a pseudo-scroll done by the
display engine when it detects that some part of the window's previous
display is still present, but in a different vertical position.
Moving point to an arbitrary location is neither.
