docs: setting g:clipboard after provider init #37705

Browse Source 
Problem:
Users may be unaware that setting `g:clipboard` after providers are
initialized has no effect, and that `has('clipboard')` initializes
providers, as in #13062.

Solution:
Note the restriction and link to workarounds in FAQ for discoverability.

(cherry picked from commit 2a906bfad6)
