What it does

1. Adds tari_ootle_template_build to [build-dependencies] in Cargo.toml
2. Creates build.rs with TemplateMetadataBuilder (or warns if build.rs already exists)
3. Writes [package.metadata.tari-template] section with the provided metadata fields

The command is idempotent — running it twice will not duplicate entries.
