Description of the new feature/enhancement

We should add copy and paste key bindings as ctrl+c/v in the settings.json file so people can see them and have the option to remove them.

Additionally, there should be a comment in the file explaining that ctrl+shift+c/v are still shipped by default so they have a backup key binding if they choose to remove the above bindings.

This would also close #3058

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
