Title:
  copy image not working correctly

Status in Canonical System Image:
  In Progress
Status in Oxide:
  In Progress
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I don't believe the "copy image" function is working correctly. It
  just copies the url of the image with text/plain content type. This
  give the client of the pasteboard no indication that it's an image.

  I would have expected one of the following, not sure which is correct (we 
should look how desktop/other platforms do it)
  1) copy the actual image to the pasteboard and specify correct content type 
(i.e. image/jpeg, etc). I believe this is the preferred method.
  2) copy the url of the image but set the content-type (i.e. image/jpeg) that 
it's an image so it can be easily decoded by the paste side

  Steps to reproduce:
  - launch browser, go to a site with an image
  - long press, select "copy image" from popup menu
  - open Notes, or Messaging-App
  - create a new Note or Message
  - long press in the text area and select "Paste" from the popup

  Expected results:
  - the image is pasted into the field

  Actual results:
  - the url of the image is pasted into the field as text
