Currently wl-clipboard doesn't do anything OS X / Darwin-specific when running on that platform, but we should!

  • Apparently readlink("/dev/fd/...") doesn't work too well there, we should use the semi-private proc_pidfdinfo() API instead.
  • For mapping a file extension to a MIME type, we should use Cocoa APIs (such as UTTypeCreatePreferredIdentifierForTag or kCFURLTypeIdentifierKey) instead of reading /etc/mime.types.
  • Can we do some similar Cocoa magic to infer file type based on its contents?
  • Research whether there is a better Darwin-specific method to create an anonymous file
