Proposal: add ability to specify parent templates

As a user, I want to be able to specify parent templates for other templates. This is not the same as partials. This functionality already comes as standard in Jeykull as I would expect to have this built-in to templates module.

Example:

  1. src/post1.md:

    ---
title: My post
template: post.hbs
---
Hello

  2. templates/post.hbs:

    ---
template: html.hbs
---
<h1>{{title}}</h1>
<p>{{contents}}</p>

  3. templates/html.hbs:

    <!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <title>{{title}}</title>
</head>
<body>
    {{{contents}}}
</body>
</html>

  4. Expected output:

    <!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <title>My post</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>My post</h1>
    <p>Hello</p>
</body>
</html>

Hey thanks for this sorry for the delay. Now that https://github.com/superwolff has split out this plugin into two separate plugins—layouts and in-place—I'm going to deprecate the metalsmith-templates plugin, so that we can use the simpler ones instead. I'm going to close this issue, but feel free to re-open there!

Added a deprecation notice to the readme.
