Give a developer the ability to create and select subfolders when creating new templates

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Today several locations in the Studio UI assume that all templates live directly under /templates/web but developers want to organize their templates into sub-folders.

Both XB and the Form Builder force the location to /templates/web but offer no mechanism to define further/refine the path of the template. The only way a developer can create sub-folders for templates is via IDE/Git directly or via the sidebar.

Describe the solution you'd like

Update the UI to allow developers to create and select sub-paths for their templates in all Studio UI experiences that allow them to create a template.

@rart, we can try to pursue this in the next release, provided we don't need any backend changes.

This dialog effectively blocks other paths in the UI that automatically assume that the template should be created in /tempaltes/web outside of the form builder.

Given this, we can confirm this ticket to updates in the form builder which includes the properties sheet and this dialog, both of which seem to make the same assumption.

• On the create template, script and folder dialog add the ability to create structure on the single input. For example, if one would click the menu for for templates/web and select "New Template", on the input one should be able to type components/feature.ftl and the new template would be created at templates/web/components/feature.ftl. Same thing for new script or new folder. leading slash should be handled appropriately.
• When a page doesn't have a template and on the item options menu one select's "Edit Template", the system creates a template. Instead, pop open the create template dialog and allow for specifying name and destination.
• On the Type Editor, when creating a new type, the New Template dialog is shown, the ability to specify destination should be provided by the updates above.

Ping me to review and go through finishing details once you have a working demo of it all.

There are some issues in the backend that need to be addressed for this enhancement to fully work.

Per conversation, we'll hold the PR on this ticket since there's some backend work needed for it to fully work.
