Description

### Description of the new feature

![Image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/27262435-bff5-4bfa-b120-d13da6119543)

### Proposed technical implementation details

1. Show the label of copy/paste menu item.
It is hard to distinguish them.
3. Disable the menu item when it is not available, not hide it.
Because their icons are meaningless to me . These icons I remember them by their order. Hiding make their order wrong.

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by locating the context-menu implementation for Copy and Paste in Windows Terminal, then verify how unavailable commands are represented. Done means the menu shows text labels for both items and disables unavailable actions instead of hiding them.
