fix(macos): fix clipboard copy failing from tray and GUI (#4629)
The clipboard copy from tray menu and capture GUI was broken on macOS:
1. FlameshotDaemon::copyToClipboard() created a KDSingleApplication
instance and called isPrimaryInstance(), which always returned false
(the daemon already holds the socket). This caused a 3-second IPC
timeout before falling back. Fix: use instance() to check if the
daemon singleton exists in-process, matching non-macOS behavior.
2. saveToClipboardMime() used setData("image/...") which puts a lazy
reference on the macOS pasteboard. If the app exits before paste,
data is lost ("Cannot keep promise"). Fix: use setImageData() for
native pasteboard persistence, plus setData() for exact format.
3. saveJpegToClipboardMacOS() used osascript with a temp file and
incorrectly labeled JPEG data as PNG UTI. Removed entirely — the
fixed saveToClipboardMime() now handles both JPEG and PNG.
