Subject: [PATCH] clipboard: re-add limited LOCALE_IO to SaveSelection

JP notes that there is an issue with comma-based decimal locales and the
SaveSelection that is addressed by having a LOCALE_IO call in a limited
block.

This changed the copy timing of the clipboard and the interaction with
KDE Klipper again.  To address this, we isolate the clipboard open call
to the end of the routine and force a round-trip of the clipboard data
before exiting.

(cherry picked from commit 36a69a7d5d8978df38dcec4966d1e3098a229b21)
