Kitura init fails on Linux

[djones6]

Running kitura init on Linux (with kitura-cli 0.0.11 or later) generates a broken project.

The Sources/Generator-Swiftserver-Projects path is successfully renamed to Sources/MyProj, but the Package.swift still contains the Generator-Swiftserver-Projects placeholders for the target and package name. This results in a build failure.

func renameProject() is trying to execute sed commands to perform the project renames with various combinations of casing and hyphenation:
https://github.com/IBM-Swift/kitura-cli/blob/master/kitura-init.js#L101

These seem to succeed on macOS but I'm guessing they are failing (silently) on Linux.

I concur, it fails for me with 0.0.12 running on Ubuntu 18.04 with Swift 4.2:

tkelly@tabor-xps13:/work/kitura2$ swift --version
Swift version 4.2 (swift-4.2-RELEASE)
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
tkelly@tabor-xps13:/work/kitura2$ kitura --version
0.0.12
tkelly@tabor-xps13:/work/kitura2$ kitura init

@shyaml Do you see the same error message as above?
