Fix pasted conductors getting an unwanted "_" label

https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectrotech-source-mirror/issues/413

## Bug

Copy-pasting an element pair joined by a conductor with no label
results in the pasted conductor having a literal "_" label, even
though the source conductor's label was empty. Repeating copy+paste on
the result keeps stacking the same "_" back on, since the pasted
conductor now legitimately has that text.

## Root cause

PasteDiagramCommand::redo() (sources/diagramcommands.cpp), when the
"erase label on copy" option is enabled (the default), resets each
pasted element's formula/label/comment/location to "" - a real erase.
Right next to it, the equivalent reset for conductors doesn't erase:

    cp.text = c->diagram() ? c->diagram()->defaultConductorProperties.text : "_";

It unconditionally overwrites the conductor's text with the *project's
configured default text for newly drawn conductors* - a setting that
happens to default to a literal "_" character (visible in the project/
new-folio "Conductors" tab), and is otherwise unrelated to whether this
particular copy's label should be kept or cleared. The `: "_"` fallback
for the "no diagram" case doesn't help either, since these conductors
are already added to the scene before this code runs.

## Fix

Reset conductor text to "" too, matching every other field reset in
the same block. "Erase on copy" should erase, not "replace with
whatever the project's unrelated new-conductor default happens to be."

## Verification

Built clean. I was not able to get a reliable live GUI reproduction
under Xvfb + xdotool for this one - drawing conductors between
terminals via simulated drag kept mis-firing as element placement
instead in this environment, the same class of automation friction
noted on PR #743. Confidence rests on tracing the exact code path
(confirmed defaultConductorProperties.text is a project-level setting
for freshly-drawn conductors, unrelated to paste; confirmed the
sibling element-info reset four lines above uses "" specifically) plus
the fact this is a one-line change to match an already-correct pattern
right next to it, not new logic.
