Introduce action for copying into clipboard (#7721)

This introduces an action for copying the path of a written
screen/selection file into the clipboard.

Pasting the path into the terminal doesn't work well if you have a
program still running and opening the file outside the terminal (on
macOS in TextEdit by default) isn't always a great experience.

Allowing to copy the file path into the clipboard seems like a minor and
hopefully uncontroversial addition. 😅
