Fixes an issue where npx create-react-app --info throws an exception on Windows. The exception was caused by envinfo's copy to clipboard functionality; envinfo is distributed pre-bundled, but the dependency it uses for copying to the clipboard makes use of a binary on Windows that can't be found once the bundle is made. Disabling copy to clipboard fixes the issue. Closes #5757.

Verified by running create-react-app --info, everything works just fine.
