Allow copy/cut/paste

This is a feature I miss from com_media. Now with all the good work on J4 inside com_media, I think is possible have this good options, essentials in any media manager. Just 3 buttons more inside the toolbar, Copy, Cut, Paste is a good solution for this.

#442 is more like move files inside a folder. But this no help when you need move files to another folder outside the current folder

That is nice @kasvith . I will test it then

@kasvith Do you know if the same PHP-code is called as with Upload/Save and Delete? Cut = Delete (when pasted), Paste = Upload/Save. Important for any PHP events onBefore..., onAfter...

when doing cut we do actually move the file in php, when do copy we do actually copy file in php, so technically its not the same code

I saw you have something done on this, but still the doubt: Will this feature be part of media manager in the early version of J4 ?
