RustRover support broken due to template placeholders ("Failed to run Cargo")

[junkdog]

The templates/simple/Cargo.toml contains Vercel template placeholders ({{project-name}}, {{authors}}) that aren't valid identifiers. When using ratzilla as a git dependency, cargo recursively parses all Cargo.toml files in the repository, including template files, causing the IDE to fail to parse the project.

Actual compilation with cargo build, trunk build, etc. works fine - this is purely metadata/IDE issue.

Suggest we move the template to its own repository.

I think it's a bit early to create a separate repository for templates. Having everything in a single repo makes testing easier and we can manage everything in a central place. In the future we could potentially create an organization and extract the templates as a separate repo. (unrelated: would you be also interested in moving beamterm there?)

We should also investigate if there is a workaround for this. (see https://cargo-generate.github.io/cargo-generate/templates/pitfalls.html). If not, this should probably be reported to RustRover/Cargo.

fair enough. there might be workarounds for jetbrains' IDE suite too, i haven't checked their tracker (a mission for claude, later).

(sure, it has its own js/ts api though, which is unrelated to ratatui)
