.gitignore not created by `userscripter init`

[SimonAlling]

$ userscripter init
$ ls -a .gitignore
ls: cannot access '.gitignore': No such file or directory
$ ls -a
.   metadata.ts  package.json  tsconfig.json          webpack.config.ts
..  .npmignore   src           tsconfig.webpack.json

Seems like .gitignore is included in the tarball created by npm pack, but not in the actual directory created by npm install -g (e.g. ~/.npm/node_modules/lib/node_modules/userscripter/bootstrap).

Turns out .gitignore is in a sense included in said directory, but it's automatically renamed to .npmignore.

Interestingly, the behavior is different depending on how Userscripter is installed:

• ❌ npm install -g userscripter
• ❌ npm pack && npm install -g userscripter-1.5.0.tgz
• ✅ npm install -g .

(Legend: template directory ends up with ❌ = .npmignore; ✅ = .gitignore.)

So it appears that it works as intended if no tarball is involved.
