Thanks, pushed to master.

This patch adds a "Copy to Clipboard" button to every messagebox
unconditionally. It solves the original problem, error messages can be
copied now. But it also can make confusion. For example when the user
tries to close LibreOffice with an unsaved document, the following
will appear:

The document "Untitled 1" has been modified.
Do you want to save your changes?

[Save] [Discard] [Cancel] [Copy to Clipboard]

Copy to Clipboard what? My changes? You know what I mean. What do you
think, how this feature can be improved? Should it be a small icon
with help text "Copy text from this dialog to clipboard", or should it
be conditional?

Thanks,
Andras
