`quote0` register not being populated

[aleprovencio]

AKA yank register, the register that records the most recent yank command, is not working with which-key default options.

The issue is on the operator preset, and I'm disabling it as a temporary fix, as in:

require'which-key'.setup {plugins = {presets = {operators = false}}}

I've seen #36, maybe there's something related.

I have the same issue with register zero not being populated, but even disabling the operator presets doesn't fix it.

Did some digging on this locally and it seems like the issue is that when set clipboard=unnamed or set clipboard=unnamedplus is active M.reg evaluates to * or + respectively here: https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim/blob/312c386ee0eafc925c27869d2be9c11ebdb807eb/lua/which-key/view.lua#L232-L241

I also noticed that without the clipboard setting (or set clipboard=) M.reg will evaluate to ". I found that resetting the variable back to " resolved the issue of the quote0 register not being set without affecting the system clipboard integration.

I just opened a PR which implements a potential fix, please let me know what you think: https://github.com/folke/which-key.nvim/pull/233

I ran into the same issue when using whichkey with osc52. It'd be great if this fix can be merged. I applied it in my fork for now. Thanks for a great plugin!
