/dev/clipboard update

["Robert Collins" <robert dot collins at itdomain dot com dot au>]

here's a patch for /dev/clipboard that
* allows sequential reads (the existing code only allowed a single
read() ).
* allows writes (sequential only.. I haven't thought thru the logic for
the boundary cases of random writes).
* allows binary data (ie it's 8 bit clean). A text version is exported
for windows, to the first \0.

sample use:
administrator@LIFELESSWKS /usr/src/src/winsup/cygwin
$ cp ~/fport.exe  /dev/clipboard

administrator@LIFELESSWKS /usr/src/src/winsup/cygwin
$ cp /dev/clipboard ./t.t

administrator@LIFELESSWKS /usr/src/src/winsup/cygwin
$ diff t.t ~/fport.exe


(Use the attached changelog Chris - it has the tabs intact).
