Adding new conference/journal template
--------------------------------------
You should prepare a merge request similar to <https://git.wmi.amu.edu.pl/filipg/paper-cutter/commit/970e10ca52bed1bf293f99809d89aacd5c7ca44a>.
Some notes:
* the style files should be just downloaded from an external resources (see e.g. https://git.wmi.amu.edu.pl/filipg/paper-cutter/src/branch/example/hooks/post_gen_project.sh#L87)
* you should take an example document (usually provided by the creators of a conference/journal template)
and turn it into a template, like e.g. <https://git.wmi.amu.edu.pl/filipg/paper-cutter/src/branch/example/%7b%7bcookiecutter.paper_repo_name%7d%7d/_latex-templates/neurips-template.tex>
* metadata header (title, authors, etc.) should be given as a separate template file, see
<https://git.wmi.amu.edu.pl/filipg/paper-cutter/src/branch/example/%7b%7bcookiecutter.paper_repo_name%7d%7d/_latex-templates/neurips-template-meta.tex>
* remember that [Jinja2](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/) is used as the template engine
* sometimes you will need to add Jinja `{% raw %}` and `{% endraw %}` directives to escape LaTeX mark-up
conflicting with Jinja directives (usually the whole or parts of `...-template.tex` and `...-template-meta.tex`
files.
