Make Ctrl+y copy the input line to the clipboard, or the currently selected item in the menu. The vi key to copy is used because Ctrl+c is already bound. Alternative bindings are: Ctrl+x to cut, but this also clears the line. Ctrl+shift+c like in terminals, but this is harder to press, and this commit works differently from terminals anyway since you don't manually highlight characters, it just copies the whole line. Alt+w, the emacs copy binding, but unless you use emacs this is weird and unfamiliar.
