This pull request improves the handling of "copy to clipboard" actions when on iOS.
iOS only allows for copying to the user's clipboard from an
<input>
or<textarea>
.This means that iOS browsers end up in the
catch
statement, with a browser alert containing the URL, which the user has to copy manually. However, some browsers like Chrome don't allow copying from alerts. 😬To workaround this, instead of showing a browser alert, it'll open up a modal with the ability to copy from there (the copy button here will work since it's copying text from a textarea).
Closes #6378.
