Johannes Altmanninger 90b2c95bbc fish_clipboard_copy: bypass tmux, write OSC 52 to the underlying terminal
For security reasons, some terminals require explicit permission from the
user to interpret OSC 52. One of them is [tmux] but that one usually runs
inside another terminal. This means we can usually write directly to the
underlying terminal, bypassing tmux and the need for user configuration.

This only works if the underlying terminal is writable to the fish user,
which may not be the case if we switched user. For this reason, keep writing
to stdout as well, which should work fine if tmux is configured correctly.
