Extends commands/paste.rs::paste_text with a pre-keystroke check:
if GetForegroundWindow (Windows) / xdotool getactivewindow (Linux
X11) / 'tell System Events ...' (macOS) reports a focused app class
matching KNOWN_TERMINAL_CLASSES, skip the synthesised Ctrl+V and
return an outcome with copied=true, pasted=false, and a user-facing
message ('Terminal detected (kitty) — use Ctrl+Shift+V to insert').
Matches Handy #692: Kitty/Alacritty/Windows Terminal/Codex CLI all
double-insert the transcript when a PTY sees both a synthesised
Ctrl+V and the terminal's own paste hotkey. The terminal list is
ordered most-specific-first so 'windowsterminal' wins over the
generic 'terminal' needle.
Adds classify_terminal() as a pure helper + seven unit tests. The
platform probe (detect_focused_window_class) isolates the fragile
shell-out so the classification rule is test-covered without
needing a real desktop. Wayland doesn't expose a reliable
focused-window API to unprivileged clients, so it conservatively
returns None and the normal paste path runs — consistent with
Kon's Wayland-Pipewire lane.
Prior-clipboard restore (#3) is intentionally skipped when terminal
mode takes over: the user's path to insert the transcript is their
own paste, which needs the transcript on the clipboard.

Extends commands/paste.rs so that when auto-paste fires we:
1. capture the user's existing clipboard text BEFORE overwriting
it with the transcript (via arboard::Clipboard::get_text — a
non-text clipboard returns None and the restore step is
skipped, which keeps images / files safe),
2. after the paste keystroke lands, sleep 300 ms,
3. restore the snapshot only if the clipboard still holds the
transcript we wrote — respects any Cmd+C the user did in the
300 ms window.
Moves the decision to a pure should_restore(current, transcript)
helper with four unit tests. The existing paste-matrix regression
tests are unchanged.
Matches Handy #921 (workstream-B brief item #3). Coexists with the
Wayland preview-hide dance already in this file, and doesn't run
when the paste keystroke fails (transcript stays on the clipboard
for the user's own paste).

Phase H landed the transcription preview overlay. Phase C landed auto-paste.
With both enabled the combo is broken on Wayland compositors (KWin, Mutter):
the overlay is always_on_top + visible at the moment paste_text fires its
Ctrl+V keystroke, and the compositor resolves the key to the topmost visible
window — which is the overlay, even though we built it with focused=false.
Net result: the transcript pastes into Kon instead of whatever app the user
was actually dictating into.
Fix, mirroring OpenWhispr's PR #246 shape: before trigger_paste_keystroke,
hide the transcription-preview window if it exists and is visible, then
sleep PREVIEW_HIDE_SETTLE_MS (80ms) so the compositor recomputes focus onto
the previously-focused app. No reshow — the user's confirmation is the text
appearing in the target app, not a fading overlay. The 80ms is enough on
KWin and Mutter; tunable if it shows up differently on other compositors.
paste_text now takes the tauri::AppHandle so it can reach the preview
window. Frontend invocation signature is unchanged (Tauri injects the
handle; the JS call site still passes { text }).

Adds an opt-in "auto-paste into focused window" toggle. When enabled, the
dictation pipeline sets the clipboard and then sends a Ctrl+V / Cmd+V
keystroke to whatever window currently has focus — the common case after a
global-hotkey dictation, since Kon's own window never stole focus.
Backend (src-tauri/src/commands/paste.rs) probes for a platform paste tool
and falls back cleanly:
- Linux Wayland: wtype > ydotool > xdotool
- Linux X11: xdotool > ydotool > wtype
- macOS: osascript System Events keystroke
- Windows: PowerShell WScript.Shell SendKeys
detect_paste_backends is a pure probe used by Settings to describe the
available backend next to the toggle (or nudge the user to install one).
paste_text always copies first, so auto-paste failure degrades to the
existing clipboard-only behaviour and surfaces a warn toast.
