When using `copy-to-register`, it is hard to see which register is
already taken in the preview buffer.
This patch highlight the register entered at prompt if it is already
taken otherwise a minibuffer message is sent to notify user the register
is available.
If any interest here is the patch, feel free to modify if needed.
Thanks.
