client: actually write incoming messages to the OS clipboard

The MVP only printed to stdout. Now the listener calls
clipboard.WriteAll on every received message, except when the message
originated from itself (to avoid clobbering local edits with our own
prior send).

Adds:
- github.com/atotto/clipboard (cross-platform: Win/macOS/Linux)
- -no-clipboard flag for stdout-only mode
- "→ clipboard updated" trace line so the user can confirm the write
