[PATCH weston] clipboard: Only copy text into internal clipboard

This is intended to fix an Xwayland + weston livelock.
When something is selected, clipboard_set_selection() copied the
first available type into an internal selection source. When an
X application exits this clipboard would be made into the
current selection buffer, so the buffer doesn't disappear on
application exit.
However, xwm unsets the current selection if it's not text.
So if a non-text selection was active when an app exited, weston
would live lock itself switching between no selection and the clipboard
selection.
This instead checks for a text type and copies that if available.
If no text type is available, we don't copy the selection at all.

I don't have the firmest understanding of this part of the code,
so I'm not 100% sure what I've done here is the right thing. :)
