Obsidian Vim Yank Highlight Plugin

Highlight yanked text in Obsidian Vim mode with a subtle animation you've missed so much.

Why?

The Vim mode in CodeMirror lacks native support for highlighting yanked text and it's unlikely to be implemented.

There is already a yank highlighter plugin, but it relies on monkey-patching the codemirror-vim code which I wanted to avoid.
