The following patches change blocking clipboard retrieval function
calls in gtk-clipboard.c to non-blocking variants using callbacks to
avoid UI lockup. It is a follow-up to the patch proposed in the GitLab
issue
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/work_items/1150
This version adds a similar change to gd_clipboard_request that also
uses the blocking clipboard API.
The second patch removes the gtk-clipboard flag, keeping the GTK
clipboard always enabled.
