 templates.py: Riddle surface form templates

 Author: Zach Lockett-Streiff, inspired by Kim Binstead, whose paper can
         be found here:

A template looks like this in the paper:
  {Relations:
    describes(NPStr, {cross_between(_,X,Y)},
   SF: (presumably means "surface form")
    cross(X,Y,NPStr)}
'''
# JAPE templates: link uninstantiated SAD (USAD) with surface form
'''
Commented out until I get describes(...) working - do I make separate
templates for each representation in the JAPE paper, or do I make just
a few generalizable templates.

class Template:
