Ummm, after thinking about it some more I'm going to partly contradict @b4n [ducks] and my own rant by saying that actually I don't think this needs an option, to not paste multiple copies of the clipboard the user simply has to not have a rectangular selection as the target of the paste.

The only situation where an extra step is needed if paste once is not available (that I can think of) is if the user intended to paste in the first line of the rectangular selection and have the rest deleted, but if the delete is done first the only extra effort is a click where the paste is to be (which removes the now empty rectangular selection). So unless somebody has another use-case for paste once into rectangular selections I don't think the option is needed.

Note that if the clipboard contains a rectangular selection it seems to be only pasted once irrespective of this option.

@AdamDanischewski but @b4n's requirement to move the setting outside Scintilla code still applies. If you make changes to anything in the scintilla directory its likely they will be overwritten by the next Scintilla update.
