Fix select_ifc_class clipboard query output

theoryshaw · theoryshaw · commit 8acc23890097 · 2026-04-15T21:01:49.000-05:00
Previously the clipboard was set inside the class loop,
overwriting on each iteration and reporting multiple times.
Now all classes are joined with " + " and the clipboard is
set once after selection completes.
