docs: add paste-file-from-clipboard recipe (stevearc/oil.nvim#156)

Browse source 
Problem: users on macOS want to copy a file in Finder and paste it
into an oil directory. The parser rejects absolute paths, but a
recipe-level solution avoids touching the mutation pipeline entirely.

Solution: add `oil-recipe-paste-file-from-clipboard` recipe that reads
the system clipboard, resolves it as a file path, and copies it into
the current oil directory via `vim.uv.fs_copyfile`.
