Auto clear clipboard after a set amount of time #347

   Currently the GUI has no auto-clear clipboard functionality. This is a common privacy practice that would be valuable addition to the GUI (and the CLI). Keeping contents on your clipboard for long periods of time may potentially leak sensitive information about your bitcoin.

   How it works

   1. User copies content from core to their clipboard (be it an address, tx id, payment URI etc.).
   2. After a set amount of time (say 60 seconds) the clipboard is auto cleared of this content as it presumes the content has been used/share in that time.

   This could be introduced in two ways:

   1. GUI has an auto-clear time per-defined.
   2. Users can set an auto-clear time in the settings for more fine-tuned privacy control.
