On Linux, when the user performs a middle-button mouse click, Chromium
fires both a mouse-down event *and* a paste event. This commit teaches
the TextEditorComponent to ignore the paste event.
When the user performs a middle-mouse click on a tab, we get close the
tab and attempt to prevent Chromium's default processing for the event.
[1] This prevents Chromium's default processing for the *mouse down*
event, but then Chromium also fires a *paste* event, and that event
pastes the clipboard's current content into the newly-focused text
editor. 🙀
Since Atom already has its own logic for handling pasting, we
shouldn't (🤞) need to handle browser paste events. By ignoring the
browser paste events on Linux, we fixatom/tabs#461.
