Specific website not scrollable in WebView, probably cookie popup issue

[codeaphex]

Description

Hi, I have a problem with a specific website which isnt scrollable inside the webview on Android.
If I open the same site inside chrome I get an cookie popup where I decline all optional ones and then be able to interact with the website. Also works flawless in MAUI Desktop.

Website (example, problem exists on whole domain):
https://www.n-tv.de/mediathek/videos/politik/Gorbatschow-Beisetzung-ist-kein-grosses-Ereignis-article23564944.html

Is there anything I can do to workaround this issue?

Repro even if its just:

<ContentPage xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             x:Class="WebView_Repro.MainPage">

    <WebView Source="https://www.n-tv.de/mediathek/videos/politik/Gorbatschow-Beisetzung-ist-kein-grosses-Ereignis-article23564944.html" />

</ContentPage>

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create webview
2. Navigate to any page on https://www.n-tv.de
3. Try to scroll

I tested with Android Studio and the cookies popup appears - but not in MAUI.

This appears to be the underlying layout parameters passed to the WebView. Right now it is set to automatically grow to the size of the content regardless of the container. This results in the page breaking.

A workaround for now is to catch the native view when it is loaded and set the layout parameters for Android:

<WebView Source="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXZfrnBasNU" Loaded="WebView_Loaded" />

private void WebView_Loaded(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
#if ANDROID
    var view = sender as WebView;
    var handler = view.Handler;
    var webview = handler?.PlatformView as Android.Webkit.WebView;
    if (webview is not null)
    {
        webview.LayoutParameters = new(
            Android.Views.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MatchParent,
            Android.Views.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MatchParent);

    }
#endif
