What does this MR do and why?

Fix #469486 (closed), created after a discussion with @stingrayza

Assisted by @oksanakohuch-ext (thanks a lot again !) to adopt the right way to make 'Copy to clipboard' appearing into each command panel displayed after creating a blank project without any README.

Done

Remark : I could not keep the 'js-clone' CSS class which existed previously (line 47, 62 and 74 into /app/views/projects/empty.html.haml) because it was not rendered correctly after using the helper methods into /app/helpers/projects_helper.rb but this class was not doing anything, if it really needs to be kept, just please tell me how to deal with it in projects_helper.rb.
