Removed unnecessary line to clone moveit_tutorials.git which was already done in the previous wstool merge.

This is to remove the issue of user facing:
fatal: destination path 'moveit_tutorials' already exists and is not an empty directory.
while running:
git clone https://github.com/ros-planning/moveit_tutorials.git -b master

Fixes #424.

When removing the clone command, the surrounding text needs to be adapted as well as indicated below.
