Closes #459 #1137

Code sections in the help viewer are highlighted on hover, and can be clicked to be copied to the clipboard, or run in the terminal.

The behavior can be modified with the setting "r.helpPanel.clickCodeExamples". Changes to this setting might require reloading the window to take effect.

It is nice to have the capability to either copying or running the example code. I wonder if it is possible to have both at the same time. For example, click to copy, and cmd+click to run, or something like this?

Good idea. I wasn't sure how to handle the possible modifier keys best, especially w.r.t. mac (Should we just make them all configurable, or are there sensible "groupings"?).
