alexion cf44c4df27 feat(desktop): add clipboard history (task 0027)
Add a clipboard module to the desktop group, enabled through the
aggregator. Home-manager's services.cliphist runs the text and image
watchers as systemd user services bound to the graphical-session
target, and a rofi-dmenu picker recalls history on Super+Shift+V.
