 Splitting this off from #46573.

 The current method for copying the debug report to the clipboard involves
 having a hidden `<textarea>`, but this shows up in screen readers
 ([https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/46573#comment:40 ref]) and can't
 be reliably hidden
 ([https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/46573#comment:50 ref]).

 Per design review from @hedgefield:

 > To the point of being able to review your copied text - is that really
 necessary? All the info is technically present on the page, and after
 copying you can paste it somewhere and then review if you want to remove
 something from it. I don't think many people scroll through the whole
 thing to see what all is in there before they copy it, but then again
 that's only my assumption. I just feel like we are making it harder than
 it needs to be. The main usecase in my mind is a support engineer asks you
 to copy that infodump, you want to give someone the quickest way to do so.
 Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong in that though.

 I agree with this assessment. The person using this tool has the ability
 to review the content being copied in the report itself. The formatting of
 what's copied is not really relevant, as the copy event can include
 multiple data types. We're currently only including plain text, but this
 could also include HTML, Markdown, or even blocks.
