Added stubs for windows as well. Got incremental transfers working so you can paste large (>256k) strings if that's ever needed. These incremental transfers don't seem to be necessary for copying large strings to other programs (maybe it's a legacy thing?), so I just send what we've got.
There is an invisible window associated with the clipboard. That's how linux programs seem to do it generally. Allows largely bypassing the X server when copying stuff within the program's windows (check if the invisible window owns the clipboard and use your own buffer rather than doing the usual request-response thing).
