Description
It would be better if flameshot can scan QR code from the selected region, and put the decoded text to clipboard.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the selected-region capture flow and the existing clipboard handling, then determine how QR decoding would fit those paths. Done means a QR code in the selected region is decoded and its text is placed on the clipboard; verify behavior with focused tests or a manual capture.
