Feature: Allow passing all Button Props through ClipboardButton component

[fabiankaegy]

Closes #398

---

This pull request refactors the ClipboardButton component to improve its flexibility and integration with other components. The main changes focus on making the button props more extensible, handling refs correctly, and making some props optional.

Component API improvements

• The ClipboardButtonProps interface now extends the base Button props (using Partial<Omit<ButtonProps, 'children'>>), allowing the component to accept any valid button prop except for children. This makes the component more flexible and easier to use in different contexts.
• The disabled, labels, and onSuccess props are now optional, providing sensible defaults and reducing the need for boilerplate when using the component. [1] [2]

Ref handling improvements

• The component now merges refs using useMergeRefs, ensuring that both internal and external refs are handled correctly when the button is used in more complex scenarios.

Usage and rendering changes

• The button now spreads any remaining props (rest) onto the underlying Button component, further improving extensibility and allowing for easier customization.

Pull Request Overview

This PR enhances the ClipboardButton component by making it more flexible and allowing consumers to pass additional button props. The component now extends ButtonProps, properly handles external refs, and makes several props optional with sensible defaults.

Key Changes:

• Extended ClipboardButtonProps to accept all standard button props except children
• Made disabled, labels, and onSuccess props optional
• Implemented proper ref merging to handle both internal and external refs

[Copilot]

The ref property should be extracted from rest before spreading to avoid passing it twice to the Button component. Destructure ref from rest at the component parameter level alongside other props.

[Copilot]

Avoid using as any type assertion. Instead, properly type the ref or use type guards to ensure type safety.

Suggested change

	const mergedRefs = useMergeRefs([ref, (rest.ref as any) || null]);
	const validRef =
	typeof rest.ref === 'function' ||
	(rest.ref && typeof rest.ref === 'object' && 'current' in rest.ref)
	? rest.ref
	: null;
	const mergedRefs = useMergeRefs([ref, validRef]);

[Copilot]

The as any type assertion bypasses type checking. Since rest should already be typed as Partial<Omit<ButtonProps, 'children'>>, the assertion is unnecessary and should be removed.

Suggested change

	<Button {...(rest as any)} ref={mergedRefs}>
	<Button {...rest} ref={mergedRefs}>

[Copilot]

Use a specific function signature instead of the generic Function type. Consider defining it as onSuccess?: () => void for better type safety.

Suggested change

	onSuccess?: Function;
	onSuccess?: () => void;
