Subject: [PATCH] Do not try to request clipboard permissions

Clipboard permissions are only implemented in Chromium-based browsers. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Interact_with_the_clipboard for more details
Instead, check if the browser supports the writeText/readText clipboard functions (some mobile browsers and older firefox versions do not).
With these change, both Chromium-based browsers and other browsers such as firefox work correctly
