Make it easier to copy background images

Project Member Reported by jakearchibald@chromium.org, Jul 16 
https://output.jsbin.com/cosay/quiet - try to copy the background image to clipboard.

Right clicking the element doesn't allow copying.

Right clicking the CSS rule lets me "copy link address" or open in new tab, but not copy the image.

Right clicking the entry in the network panel and "copy > copy response" copies the resource as a base64 URL.

Right clicking the "preview" in the network panel lets me "copy link address" or open in new tab, or copy has base64.

If I open the image in a new tab I can copy the image, but it seems like this should be a bit easier.

DevTools currently suppresses most default context menu options.  I can take a look.

This is about copying the image, not the image URL.

It seems that, at the very least, you should be able to copy the image from the preview in the network panel. This matches what you can do with <img> in a page.
