Issue: Parameter cache is preserved after copy_empty_like
### Environment

- **Qiskit version**: main
- **Python version**: 
- **Operating system**: 


### What is happening?

Parameter appears in empty circuit after copy

### How can we reproduce the issue?

```python
p1 = Parameter("P1")
qc = QuantumCircuit(1)
qc.rz(p1, 0)
qc.parameters  # dummy call to fill cache

cpy = qc.copy_empty_like()
cpy.parameters
```
I see
```
ParameterView([Parameter(P1)])
```
which should not exist.

### What should happen?

Parameter should be empty

### Any suggestions?

Nullify `_parameters` after copy
Pull request description: Invalidate `parameters` cache on circuit copy (backport #12619)
### Summary

Previously, the caching of the parameter view could persist between copies of the circuit because it was part of the `copy.copy`.




### Details and comments

Fix #12617.

I verified that this is present in 1.1.0 as well.<hr>This is an automatic backport of pull request #12619 done by [Mergify](https://mergify.com).

+    The :attr:`.QuantumCircuit.parameters` attribute will now correctly be empty
+    when using :meth:`.QuantumCircuit.copy_empty_like` on a parametric circuit.
+    Previously, an internal cache would be copied over without invalidation.
+    Fix `#12617 <https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/issues/12617>`__.
