Interactive screenshots revert to original page state before saving #125

Description

@mhalle

The --interactive flag allows the user to interact with the page before saving. However, it seems that shot-scraper reloads the URL after enter is pressed, reverting the page back to its original state. This limitation or defect reduces the value of --interactive.

For example, load https://maps.google.com/ with --interactive. Drag the map around, then hit enter. The original state of the map is saved.

This is true for any controls as well. For example, try https://mui.com/material-ui/react-slider/ and drag some sliders around in interactive mode, then save. The sliders are in their original default state.

If the user changes the URL interactively to a new page, the old URL is reloaded and saved.
