bug(developer): New Project creates old format model projects and has missing welcome.htm link

[DavidLRowe]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

There are several things where the New Project processing could be improved.

(1) New Project for lexical models doesn't create v17 format .kpj file and still creates .model_info file. For example:
Project, New Project, Wordlist Lexical Model, OK
Author: abc
Model: def
Description: Test
BCP 47: wwa
OK, to create abc.wwa.def\abc.wwa.def.model.kpj
This creates a .kpj file in the old (pre-v17) format, but offers an Upgrade project button.
After the upgrade, the .kpj file is in v17 format, but there's still a .model_info file that needs deletion. (In contrast, when creating a new keyboard project, the .kpj file is already in v17 format and no .keyboard_info file is created.)

(2) New Project for keyboard doesn't include link to welcome.htm in .kps file. (That is, on Details tab, "Welcome file:" field has "(none"), even though a welcome.htm file has been created in the source folder.

Describe the solution you'd like

(1) lexical model projects should use v17 format .kpj files
(2) keyboard projects should include a welcome.htm link in the .kps file. (May apply to lexical model projects as well.)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Manually edit (or ask keyboard authors to edit) files to make these changes.

Thanks for this report.

I'm going to reclassify these as bugs -- and fix them during beta -- because both are things that are wrong, and both are simple fixes.
