Duplicating clone clipping does not relink to new original

The option "Relink duplicated clones" should relink all clones to new duplicated original, but if cloned object is used as clip object, it will not be relinked.
Steps to reproduce:
- Enable "Relink duplicated clones" in Preferences
- Create rectangle (or any other shape)
- Create two clones from this rectangle, move clones so that they overlap
- Select two clones and execute "Set Clip" command; forward clone becomes clipping shape for background clone
- Select all objects, duplicate (Ctrl+D) and move duplicated objects away from originals
- Execute "Release Clip" on duplicated clone object
- Select duplicated clone that was used as clipping shape and look up original (Shift+D)
What happened?
Observe that duplicated clone's original is unchanged (same original that is used by unduplicated clipping shape).
What should have happened?
All duplicated clones should be relinked to duplicated original, including the clipping shape.
Migrator's Notes:
- "expected" behaviour? According to spec, not by intuition.
- I was hesitant to mark this as a duplicate of inkscape#1874 even though they seem unrelated, they probably aren't.
