Re: [w3c/clipboard-apis] Fix the handling of password fields with the copy and cut actions (#5)

We (@gked and I) just checked and the only UA that allows the user to show the password is Edge. The other browsers we tested (Chrome Mac, FF Mac/Win, Safari) do not have native support for showing the actual password.

@ehsan 's proposal sounds reasonable. Allow copying only if the password is currently being shown (if the UA supports that). If the password field is displaying '****', then nothing is copied or cut. Paste will always work in password fields.
