Vscode-pull-request-github: Enable user to copy to the clipboard the link to the PR

[dkent600]

On the description page I would love to be able to copy to the clipboard the PR link. Would save me having to click the link, go to the browser and copy the link from the browser URL input field. The whole idea of this extension is to keep the workflow within VS Code.

Thanks!

@dkent600 If I'm right you're talking about providing a copy to clipboard action next to the title of PR. @RMacfarlane I would like to take this if no one has taken this yet.

Ideally, I think there needs to be a copy icon(a notepad SVG) next to the edit icon which when clicked copies the link to clipboard.
But for now, I have added a button that lets users copy to the link. Let me know if a notification toast or message box should be displayed on the success of copying the link.

It would be great if someone with UX/photoshop skills provides an SVG that matches with the extension icons located in resources/icons.

This looks good @rishab-pdx have you got a PR in the works?

Would of thought we could use the same icon from github or opensource icon?

Looks like a dupe of https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-pull-request-github/issues/1172 @RMacfarlane

@ashrodan I could not get back earlier. There is a PR in work which makes use of vscode's clipboard api. If we can have the icon for copy action then I can merge it and create a final PR.

2203 addresses this! @RMacfarlane @ashrodan FYI
