Steps to reproduce:

1. Pressed the right button on my mouse.
2. Copied a text from an webpage.
3. Pasted it.


Actual results:

The text contained hyperlinks. I copied it from example.com. You can see the screenshot of example.com here: https://screenshots.firefox.com/tdr1hRu20jEQ6Vrc/example.com

When I pasted it, it contains a hyperlink. Screenshot here: https://screenshots.firefox.com/vPQGF9AZK2QzIi4E/docs.google.com

Expected results:

Although there is an shortcut to it that is Ctrl+Shift+V, adding an option in the context menu may help users to use it as many people don't know this shortcut.
