Proposed changes
This PR fixes issue #14740 where WebDriver actions fail due to conflicting input source IDs.
Problem: The current implementation uses a single global counter (actionIds) to generate IDs for all action types (key, pointer, wheel). This causes sequential IDs like action1, action2, action3 to be used across different action types, violating the W3C WebDriver specification which requires each input source ID to consistently map to the same action type throughout a session.
Error observed: WebDriverError: Expected input source "action1" to be type key, got pointer
Solution: Implement separate counters for each action type:
keyActionIds → generates key1, key2, key3
pointerActionIds → generates pointer1, pointer2, pointer3
wheelActionIds → generates wheel1, wheel2, wheel3.
This ensures each ID consistently maps to its action type, preventing conflicts when mixing action types in the same session.
Verification: Tested with the reproduction repository from the issue reporter. Tests that previously failed with Firefox/Geckodriver now pass.
Fixes #14740
