Reimplement clipboard commands in terms of special regs

Since the clipboard provider now lives on the Registers type, we want
to eliminate it from the Editor. We can do that and clean up the
commands that interact with the clipboard by calling regular yank,
paste and replace impls on the clipboard special registers.

Eventually the clipboard commands could be removed once macro keybinding
is supported.
