Support X11 clipboard on Linux platform

thanhph111 commented 3 years ago

I try to minimize the changes as much as possible.

I added xcip to support X11 clipboard on Linux system (you can refer to 353f34b). I tested on Ubuntu 20.04 and Blender 2.83 LTS, need further testing on other Linux distros and Blender versions.

I also see some changes I can contribute to the repo:

Separate the development code (which will be tracked by git) and the shared libraries (which will be published via Release).
Restructure the repo for easy maintenance.
Format the code to match recommended style guide.
Haven't researched in depth on macOS yet but I think we can apply the same approach.

I find the add-on idea very useful and I'd like to make it grow. Tell me how much I can do.

Amazing! That's perfect. I"ll merge and update master soon. And MacOS has been a challenge, as I don't have access to any Mac device whatsoever, but PIL should work for Macs, for the most part. Thanks a lot for the contribution!

Glad it could help. I'll try to do more in the next PRs.
