When iced moved to arboard it "lost" the capability to interface to the primary clipboard on Linux.
This change adds back support for it by exposing {read,write}_primary(...) and wiring it up in the runtime.
I didn't create the equivalent versions for read_{text,image,...} for simplicity, and also because I don't expect anything but text to be handled for this specific clipboard.
On top of that it also includes support some patches that adds support for middle click handling to interface with this clipboard on linux, those have been extracted from the fork used in halloy (and updated to the new APIs)
