feat: add OSC 52 clipboard support for container-to-host copy

Programs inside the container (e.g. Claude Code's "hit c to copy") can
now write to the host system clipboard. A shell script shim installed as
xclip/xsel/pbcopy emits OSC 52 escape sequences, which the xterm.js
frontend intercepts and forwards to navigator.clipboard.writeText().
