rootiest b2be858d8c refactor(clipboard): share provider detection across y/p/paste/hist
Extracts _fish_clipboard_copy and _fish_clipboard_paste so the
wl-copy/xclip/win32yank fallback chain lives in one place instead of
four near-duplicates. hist now goes through the same chain, so it
also gets the xclip (X11) fallback it was missing before, alongside
win32yank on WSL2.
