Summary:
It should be possible to copy the iOS version and build number from the About pane in the Settings app.

It is currently possible to copy some informations from this table (such as IMEI, serial number, SEID, MEID) by long pressing on the table row but such interaction is not enabled for the version row.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the Settings app
2. Navigate to General > About
3. Long press the Version row

Expected Results:
A menu controller with a 'Copy' item should be displayed above the row, allowing the user to copy the iOS version and build number to the general pasteboard.

Actual Results:
Long pressing the row has no effect.

Version:
iOS 10.3.2 build 14F5080a (👈 manually recopied)

Notes:
This would greatly improve the process of inputting the build number in bug reports.

Configuration:
Every time, everywhere, every device
