Optionally track clipboard #78

Closed ianb closed 6 years ago

While I think it's a tad too much for normal collection, during planned collection sessions it would be nice to "highlight" in a simple way things on pages. I think a simple selection+copy would be a nice way.

I'd suggest using clipboardRead in the background and also tracking the active tab when the clipboard changes. I think these could be added to the existing activity record.

The setting should be controlled by a buildSetting, and turned on by default in dev mode (npm start) but not as part of the normal build.

Note I didn't make it optional, because we're already capturing so much stuff...
