Make board serial number text copyable in "Board Info" dialog

[per1234]

Describe the request

Allow the user to easily copy the text in the "Board Info" dialog to the clipboard. This could be provided by a button in the dialog, or just by allowing the user to select the text.

🙂 This will make it easy for the user to obtain the text of the board's serial number.

Describe the current behavior

When the user selects Tools > Get Board Info from the Arduino IDE menus, a dialog opens that shows information about the selected port:

This information includes the board serial number, which might be requested by Arduino technical support or required for the registration of associated software products such as:

• Lauterbach TRACE32 Debugger
• Arduino Speech Recognition Engine

The serial number may be dozens of characters long. The text in the "Board Info" dialog is not selectable and no mechanism is available for copying it.

🙁 Manually transcribing the serial number from the dialog is inconvenient and error prone.

Ctrl+C when the dialog box is in focus will copy the details. You can paste it to the Notepad and get the appropriate details. Screenshot shown below

I understand this is a workaround but is this required?

Tested with Arduino 2.2.2 on Windows 11
