// Broad @match needed: GitHub uses SPA navigation, so the MutationObserver
// re-adds the button as the PR header re-renders.
//
// GM_xmlhttpRequest + GM_setClipboard (not fetch + navigator.clipboard):
// github.com/<o>/<r>/pull/<n>.diff 302-redirects cross-origin to
// patch-diff.githubusercontent.com with no CORS header, so a page fetch is
// blocked. GM_xmlhttpRequest bypasses CORS and sends cookies (private PRs).
