Support paste on wayland #1393

This uses wtype to support paste on wayland: https://github.com/atx/wtype Currently very WIP, need to compile and try it out. Haven't done much C++ so relying on the existing code for `xdotool` here just altering the command used.

Does wtype generally work? How does it behave on xwayland windows? If it works on all windows we could simply query the platform and use the correct tool. |

I'm not sure, my hope was to create this draft then give it a test but life and work has got in the way. My rough understanding is that it's an equivalent to I'll try and get some time to try this out. If there a guide for building and trying out a change locally? I've not working C++ before. |
dont bother i'll do that. i just have to know the behavior. if their effect is mutually exclusive we could probably simply call both (xdotool and wtype). |
