Bug

The white-on-black log viewer panes in the web UI (for both container logs and build logs) have two issues:

Not scrollable — the panes showing container runtime logs and build logs cannot be scrolled by the user, so content beyond the visible area is inaccessible.
Build log does not auto-scroll or show later lines — during a build, when the log output exceeds one page of content, the viewer does not scroll to show new lines. The user is stuck seeing only the initial output with no way to view the rest.

Expected behavior

Log panes should be scrollable (CSS overflow-y: auto or scroll).
During an active build, the log viewer should auto-scroll to the bottom as new lines arrive (following the tail), with the option for the user to scroll up to review earlier output.
Container logs should similarly be scrollable.

Affected components

The HTML/JS frontend log viewer — the dark-background panes that display:

Last build log
Currently running container log
