Save items to disk automatically

[KoalaBear84]

Save items to disk and restore them when Shapeshifter starts. So it will also be a clipboard backup which survives a Windows reboot.

Current work-around: Pin them. Pinned items are persisted to disk.

This is a good proposal. We should automatically offload items to disk anyway, since memory consumption can grow quite significantly.

@KoalaBear84 perhaps you can implement this yourself while I work on other issues? Should be fairly easy. See ClipboardPersistenceService.cs.

One of the main features of Shapeshifter, is that it does NOT store clipboard contents on disk! This is important for security, and the reason I came to look at Shapeshifter.

Are you planning to change this?

Storing only "Pinned" items is a good feature.
