Description

The debug console is virtualized and only rerenders the visible part of the debug output, because of it, it is not possible to copy the whole output. There should be Copy All command/menu item which will construct the whole output from debug console model and paste it into the clipboard.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a 'Copy All' action by constructing the full output from the debug console model and copying it to the clipboard. Inspect the existing copy functionality and the debug console model to understand how to aggregate the output.
