I founded in somebody's neovim config these lines

    vim.api.nvim_exec([[
    augroup YankHighlight
    autocmd!
    autocmd TextYankPost * silent! lua
vim.highlight.on_yank{higroup="IncSearch", timeout=300}
    augroup end
    ]], false)

This Lua code highlight text, copied via commands, like `3yw` for
example. As I'm using evil, I'm curious how to do the same in Emacs

Every once in a while a new and interesting evil package shows up, and
I'm promptly adding it to my config
