Details:

When the value label view is active in the data view window, then Copy and Cut
store different data on the clipboard.

Copy: The data with value labels is stored on the clipboard
Cut: The raw data is stored on the clipboard

To reproduce:

1. Create variable "a", "b",
2. Create a value label for value "5" = "donald"
3. Switch to data view and enter data for variable a:  "4" <ENTER> "5" <ENTER>
"6" <ENTER>
4. Activate value label view => 5 is shown as "donald"
5. Select var a, cases 1 to 3 with a mouse selection rectangle
6A: Copy the data with <CTRL>c => Clipboard contains "4.00" NL "donald" NL
"5.00" NL
6B: Cut the data with <CTRL>x => Clipboard contains "4.00" NL "5.00" NL "6.00"
NL
7. Click var b case 1
8. Paste the data with <CTRL>v

Case A: Var b, case 2 is empty because the clipboard contains the value label
Case B: Var b, case 2 shows "5.00"

Expected: Copy and Cut should have the same data on the clipboard. When value
label is active, that should be the labeled data.
