Fixes to address #24

Issue 1 was the premature error firing off of the no display error after xclip was not found. xsel was never getting a look in.

After that was resolved, xsel was breaking many tests due to outputting the contents of the clipboard when creating the connection with pipe(). With the -i option it seems not to do that. Not that the documentation is clear on why.

Brilliant! It's always the things you didn't manage to test for that rear up to haunt you... many thanks for the fix 👍

I polish up a CRAN release later today.
