Githawk: Copying

[rnystrom]

Not sure the best approach here. Options:

• Individual cell copying. Have to support on every type of cell, but can highlight individual hunks of text
• Copy all original md. Noisier, but very easy to implement (UIAlertController etc)

Thoughts?

Inspired by #600

I quite like the idea of a "See Original" action, which just shows you the entire markdown in it's own view (and that's copyable)

Would be super helpful for testing where the markdown content is the cause of some render issues!

My preferences FWIW:

1. highlight individual chunks of text the iOS standard way so i get to use the share sheet
2. less good: view markdown so that I can do as above, but less good as I will have to content with markdown special characters
3. worst option: copy all text in cell, because that will require editing after the fact

There's still nothing preventing us doing both, as I do see two different use cases for this especially with the functionality of being able to quote a previous message which depends on this functionality but would be easier with paragraphs rather than entire posts!

FYI we wont be able to do normal text selection b/c we're not using UITextView (and wont for perf reasons).

I'd be open to a "view raw markdown" alert action on a comment's "..." menu item, open a modal UITextView, and let you select + highlight from that?

Works for me.
