Extension to [Bug 1756254][https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1756254]

Copying an image from Firefox on windows into another application like wordpad or another browser uses an extra GET request instead of taking the image from the clipboard.
This is not an issue on MacOS.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Load page on Ff (GET) --> Copy Img --> Paste into chromium (GET, cached) --> Paste into another browser (no GET request now)
  2. Load page on Ff (GET) --> Copy Img --> Paste into word (GET, cached) --> Copy img --> Paste into word (GET, cached)
  3. Load page on Ff (GET) --> Copy Img --> clear cache --> Paste into word (GET, not cached)
