By default, "emacs -Q" does not push pasted text onto the kill ring, so
it'd make sense if "emacs -Q -nw" didn't, either.  However, the variable
we have that controls this is `select-enable-primary', which ... has
other side effects, too.  So using that here would be really confusing.

So I've added a new xterm-specific defcustom to Emacs 28.
