Buttons for creating content files in new project should be linked to Web IDE

Problem to solve

As a follow up on https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/45687, it has been decided to split scope of that issue so that linking the "New file", "Add LICENSE", etc buttons in freshly-created project would link to Web IDE. This is part of replacement of the ACE editor process and is a logic next step after

are implemented.

Further details

The issue is limited to the buttons, shown to user after creating a new project

Proposal

The process should piggybacks https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/57668

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

Buttons, shown to user in newly-created project should be linked to Web IDE: clicking any of those will create a new file in the project through Web IDE interface
