implemented ncurses clipboard support via external processes

* As an alternative to OSC-52, which is rarely supported by terminal emulators.
* Makes the new mouse support much more useful since you rely on good builtin
  clipboard support. You can no longer e.g. just double-click a word to copy it into
  the "primary" selection as terminal emulators do by default.
* Set $SCITECO_CLIPBOARD_SET/GET e.g. to xclip, way-copy, pbcopy or some wrapper script.
* This is currently using POSIX-specific popen() API, so it behaves a bit different
  to command execution via EC/EG.
  I am not sure if it's worth rewriting with the GSpawn-API, since it will be used
  only on POSIX anyway and a GSpawn-based implementation is likely to be a bit larger.
* Should there be some small command-line utility for interacting (esp. pasting) via OSC-52,
  built-in OSC-52 support could well be removed from SciTECO.
  Currently, I know only of https://github.com/theimpostor/osc/ and it requires
  very recent Go compilers. (I still haven't tested it. Quite possibly, pasting when run as
  a piped command is impossible.)

    Clipboards are not flexible enough and not supported everywhere.
    I am not sure how to elegantly address instances, though.
    Especially without some kind of central name registry.
- * Generic clipboard support via optional libclipboard support.
-   This would mainly benefit the ncurses version, especially when enabling
-   mouse support.
-   But it may be beneficial to support it on all other Curses-variants
-   and on Gtk as well.
  * Touch restored save point files - should perhaps be configurable.
    This is important when working with Makefiles, as make looks
    at the modification times of files.
