           Summary: Allow for user to enable clipboard for entering
                    pass-phrases

Kleopatra disables the use of the clipboard for entering passphrases. This MAY
remove some vulnerabilities in some situations, but it also discourages strong
paraphrases: passwords that are long, use upper and lower case and punctuation.
Is also discourages the use of password-safes which generate long, hard-to-type
passwords.
Let the user at least temporarily enable the clipboard, so un-typeable
passwords may be used.

Reproducible: Always
