svenfuchs/gem-release — Issue #14: Create .gitignore when bootstrapping gem

Since bootstrapping a gem also inits git, I think we should create a default `.gitignore` file too.

It could contain the following:

```
*.gem
Gemfile.lock
```

Any other candidates to exclude?

Also, should Gemfile.lock be removed from `gem-release` itself? In general, Gemfile.lock files should be excluded from git for gems, but not apps, although I'm not sure how I feel about it here.

@svenfuchs - your thoughts please :)
