keyboard: simplify clipboard internals to enable future kb navigation
Until this commit, the Clipboard implementation relied on an always-focused hidden textarea element. This had a few benefits: - makes it easy to handle the "input" command, - prevents browser-quirks about copy/paste events. The downside were: - it makes it hard to handle usual browser keyboard navigation (with tab, arrow keys, etc.). For now, this default navigation is overriden anyway with app-specific shortcuts so we don't care much. But it makes future improvements about that difficult. - it makes screen reader support difficult. As basically any interaction focuses back to one dummy element, this is an actual barrier to any future work on this. In modern day browser APIs, the copy/paste quirks are not there anymore, so the need to go around them is no more. (actually, not 100% sure yet, I'm testing this more now) This commit starts some ground work to stop relying on an hidden input, making it possible then to work on more complete keyboard navigation, and eventually actual screen reader support. This still doesn't work really great, there are a few @todo marked in the comments.
