Copy heading links

[scriptcoded]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

We've found that users are confused with how heading linking works. Clicking the 🔗 icon next to the heading only scrolls to it and updates the URL, but does not copy it.

Describe the solution you'd like

Clicking the 🔗 icon should also copy the link to the clipboard.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Not an alternative, but maybe copying the link should trigger a toast or similar as well.

Are you able to assist to bring the feature to reality?

yes, I can

Additional context

I'd be happy to contribute this feature ASAP.

Love it! We already have some copy to clipboard code elsewhere in the codebase, so please use the same library. Happy to merge. 🙌

For the record, Jeppe made a compelling argument on the proposed PR that this is not usual behaviour on almost all websites he tested, and that we shouldn't overwrite the clipboard when most users won't expect it.

We've closed the PR and encourage anyone wanting to pick this up to make it into an addon instead. See #30411 (comment) for pointers.
