(cli): .gitignore is not generated during cdk init app from v2.14 or later

[konokenj]

What is the problem?

.gitignore is missing after cdk init app --language=typescript in v2.14.0. It exists in v2.13.0.
This problems still exists in latest version (v2.17.0).

Reproduction Steps

# .gitignore is missing
npx aws-cdk@2.14 init app --generate-only --language=typescript
# .gitignore exists
npx aws-cdk@2.13 init app --generate-only --language=typescript

What did you expect to happen?

Initialize project with correctly.

What actually happened?

Since the.gitignore does not exist, node_modules are committed to git. To avoid this, it is necessary to copy the.gitignore generated by the previous version.
