Copy/paste did not work between the local machine and an RDP session. The FreeRDP cliprdr virtual channel was explicitly disabled in the build (CHANNEL_CLIPRDR OFF in CMakeLists.txt) and no clipboard-handling code existed in the RDP backend.

Fixed in commit 793fdd9: enabled the cliprdr channel and added bidirectional text clipboard sync (CF_UNICODETEXT) -- local copies are pushed to the remote clipboard, and remote clipboard changes are eagerly fetched into the local clipboard. Scoped to plain text only; files/images/rich formats are not covered.
