Add copy-to-clipboard support for TerminalConsole

Adds text selection and copy functionality to the console:

  • Mouse selection: Click and drag in the log area to select text
  • [Copy] button: Clickable button in title bar
  • Keyboard shortcut: Configurable, defaults to Ctrl+Shift+C
  • Callback API: onCopySelection?: (text: string) => void in ConsoleOptions

Motivation

Requested in sst/opencode#5239 — rather than having consumers intercept mouse events, this implements the feature properly in opentui.

New options

interface ConsoleOptions {
  onCopySelection?: (text: string) => void
  copyShortcut?: { key: string; ctrl?: boolean; shift?: boolean }
  selectionColor?: ColorInput
  copyButtonColor?: ColorInput
}

Usage

const renderer = await createCliRenderer({
  consoleOptions: {
    onCopySelection: (text) => Clipboard.copy(text)
  }
})
