  .Xresources: Add Copy/Paste Key Binding

On systems without a middle mouse button it is not always obvious how to
paste the selection into an xterm window.

For our convenience I added the custom key binding Ctrl-Shift-v +
Ctrl-Shift-c to make our lives a little less annoying.

We also lack documentation on what is currently configured and how to
change it. In an attempt to improve the situation, I have added some
online links and some detailed comments on the lines I have added.

Note, that the last escaped newline (\n\) is not needed, but makes it
easier to add more key bindings.

Closes: grml/grml-desktop#6

  .Xresources: Add key binding to switch between fonts without a numeric keypad

Modern notebooks lack a numeric keypad, making it hard to use the
shifted keypad plus and minus bindings for switching between font sizes.

Ctrl-+ (which is actually Ctrl-=) + Ctrl-- allows us to switch between
fonts on keyboards without a numeric keypad.
