New Plugin: Bases New with Template (for ‘New’ Button)

As per the following feature request, it is very useful to have the ability to automatically apply a template to a note created by the Bases “New +” button.

Assigning default templates to new entries of an object type in a database is a universal feature in object-based PKM like capacities and notion.

I have implemented a temporary solution to this using a plugin. This plugin listens for file creation and checks for an existing template property in the frontmatter, which we can set up to be “implied” from property filters. If it finds it, it applies the template content.

Please create an issue if you encounter any side effects or have suggestions for improvements
