Userland: Implement paste --watch mode

You can now watch the clipboard for changes and run a command each time
the clipboard contents change like this:

$ paste --watch some command here

The command will be spawned each time the clipboard contents change. It
can read the clipboard contents from its stdin, and CLIPBOARD_STATE
environment variable will be set to "data" if there is data to be read,
or to "nil"/"clear" if the clipboard has been cleared.
