Create project template

Agreed, the template content looks fine.

Depending on the hooks list, there might be some additional configuration files like .flake8 for example.

Based on the conversation on #64 (and to keep things in the correct context):

One question I have: would it make sense to have templates for the most common project types that can be created for cylc ?

As a generic, base name (as @kinow proposed on #64), cylc-project-template looks fine.

Good question, cc @cylc/core. As we don't have much development bandwidth while working on Cylc 8 (scheduled for mid 2020 I think), I think a single repo with the generic contents for all projects would be easier. But wouldn't veto multiple templates 👍

As a generic, base name (as @kinow proposed on #64), cylc-project-template looks fine.

In that case I think we would have:

• a new repository cylc/cylc-project-template with
  • LICENSE or COPYING file, with the GPL-3 license
  • README.md with badges and the sections without content, except for the contributing and license parts
  • CONTRIBUTING.md with the CLA and contribution guidelines
  • CHANGES.md with the 0.1 version and empty sections
  • .github with issues and PR templates
  • setup.py (for JS projects we can simply remove it)
  • .pre-commit-config.yaml for the pre-commit hooks
  • Maybe a .travis.yml as well I think

Sounds good to me, with @kinow's tweaks 👍
