feat: add Ctrl+V image paste support

[ErikBjare]

Implements automatic image detection and paste functionality when pressing Ctrl+V in the prompt, supporting:

• Image data from clipboard (screenshots, copied images)
• Image URLs (automatically downloaded)
• Local image file paths
• Fallback to normal text paste for non-image content

Changes:

• Add paste_image() and paste_text() functions to clipboard module
• Add Ctrl+V key binding with smart image detection to prompt
• Enhance view_image() to support URLs with automatic download

Fixes #655

Hi Erik,

I noticed we have duplicate PRs for the same feature! I created PR #708 yesterday implementing Ctrl+V image paste, but I should have checked for existing PRs first. I completely missed that you already had this PR open since Sept 30th.

Comparison:

• Your PR #656: More comprehensive (clipboard, URLs, file paths), but Codecov shows 14.40% coverage with 107 missing lines
• My PR #708: Simpler approach (just clipboard images via pyclip), but includes comprehensive tests (test_util_clipboard.py)

Next Steps: I'm happy to:

1. Close my PR and help you finish yours by adding test coverage
2. Keep my PR if you prefer the simpler approach
3. Combine best parts of both approaches

What would you prefer? Sorry for the duplicate work!

[ErikBjare]

@TimeToBuildBob You should do (1) and (3). You also need to rebase this PR against master.

[TimeToBuildBob]

Rebased on master and added comprehensive test coverage for paste_image and paste_text functions.

Changes

• ✅ Rebased branch on latest master (resolved merge conflict in gptme/chat.py)
• ✅ Added tests/test_util_clipboard_paste.py with 9 comprehensive tests
• ✅ All tests passing
• ✅ All pre-commit checks passing

Test Coverage

The new tests cover:

• paste_image with PIL Image objects (with/without attachments_dir)
• paste_image with file path lists (Windows behavior)
• paste_image error handling (empty clipboard, exceptions)
• paste_text on Linux (xclip, wl-paste)
• paste_text error handling

This addresses the low test coverage issue (14.40% with 107 missing lines) noted in the PR review.

Combines best parts of PR #656 (comprehensive feature set) and PR #708 (test coverage) as requested by @ErikBjare.
