Clipboard for Go

This is a fork of atotto/clipboard which adds support for DragonFly and Plan9.

(atotto/clipboard does not appear to be maintained, so this is just here so I can use for de. I don't expect any significant work on this other than adding new OS support as needed.)

Provide copying and pasting to the Clipboard for Go.
