Copy Text Fragment URL Extension

As of version 80, Chromium has a fancy new feature called \"scroll to text fragment,\" letting you jump to anywhere in the page given specified text. This extension wraps that functionality, letting you highlight and right-click to easily copy a URL to where that text is on the page.

Inspired by and built for the Web's loyal vanguard and general lovable weirdo, Bruce Lawson.
