Remove clippy.swf and update documentation

The `clippy.swf` Flash program is no longer needed and can be deleted.
The configuration property is now incorrectly named, but we keep the
name and update the documentation. Maybe it could be completely deleted
one day, when the clipboard.js solution is known to work and be universally
supported.
