/**
 * Copies given text into clipboard.
 *
 * This function supports 3 ways of copying and fallbacks if any of them fails:
 * 1. Using the modern Clipboard API (navigator.clipboard.writeText) - on most browsers works only in secure context (HTTPS) or localhost
 * 2. Using the deprecated document.execCommand("copy") - deprecated, but still supported by most browsers - with Firefox works only on "click" event triggered by the user
 * 3. Using the prompt function - the most universal way, but requires user interaction
