feat(templates): add Porygon and Smeargle templates

Porygon lays the resume out as a ruled form after the Japanese résumé
form (rirekisho). The header is a block of bordered field cells framed
in the accent color with the photo in a cell of its own, and every
section is a table with a solid title bar over one ruled cell per
entry. Touching cells share one tinted rule.

Smeargle sets the resume like a magazine feature: the headline as an
uppercase kicker over a display name, the summary as an italic
standfirst, and italic section headings at the user's heading size.

Both are one-column and ATS-safe. Register them in the schema, renderer,
semantic manifests and gallery, add gallery and docs previews, extract
the new descriptions, regenerate the API spec, and list them wherever
the docs enumerate templates.

## Where Reactive Resume is a better fit
Choose Reactive Resume when the content should stay in recognizable resume fields and you expect to reuse it across versions. You can change between 15 templates without re-entering the underlying sections, adjust layout settings, and export in several document and data formats. Cover letters are their own documents that share the resume's design, and Check mode flags lines that applicant tracking systems may read poorly.
Choose Reactive Resume when the content should stay in recognizable resume fields and you expect to reuse it across versions. You can change between 17 templates without re-entering the underlying sections, adjust layout settings, and export in several document and data formats. Cover letters are their own documents that share the resume's design, and Check mode flags lines that applicant tracking systems may read poorly.
It also fits when you care about infrastructure. Reactive Resume is [MIT-licensed](/legal/license), its source is public, and you can deploy it yourself. The [self-hosting guide](/self-hosting/docker) covers the Docker path, and hosted use stays available if you would rather not run the service.
