Mouse button pressed in scroll keybind
I’m not sure of the proper way to do it in KDE Wayland, but I’ve resorted to a hack to make it work in GNOME Wayland (and it works in KDE too).

click and drag scrolling
Hey OP, as you found out you need button scrolling in libinput for it to make it work on Wayland, for mice the option is present but not enabled by default (as it is for trackpoints). However GNOME doesn't expose this option in their settings, so I resorted to a hack to make it work in the meantime GNOME developers implement it. Here's a fully detailed answer I wrote a few days ago. I personally tested this and it works as you'd expect.

Could it be possible to use auto scroll in whole Linux system?
If you are doing this on Wayland and want to enable this on middle click press use force right-click-scroll, and change the 17 line from button 273 to 1, like so: libinput_device_config_scroll_set_button(device, 1);

I have a trackpoint that has this option enabled by default on middle-button scroll. I prefered that my middle-button just used POINTER_MOTION events instead, but my compositor doesn't expose this option on their settings app. On Gnome Xorg I could just disable this method via xorg config files but in Gnome Wayland I resorted to a 4-year-old temporary hack, inspired by the original to force middle-button scroll. It worked for me on Ubuntu Gnome Wayland 3.38, but for Arch Gnome 40 I had to also do this.
