X11: Optionally copy selection buffer to clipboard (STR 3229)
The new method Fl::selection_to_clipboard(int) enables copying selection data to the clipboard on X11 if it is set to 1. This feature was requested by STR 3229 and the implementation was inspired by an `xterm` feature named "Select to Clipboard" which can be enabled by 'ctrl + middle mouse button + "Select to Clipboard"' in an xterm window.
