template_depends: throw nice error message when template cannot be found
plovs reported a crash when templates were not installed properly, with a non-useful error about the template object not being defined. I've audited all uses of template_depends(), and template(), and it makes sense for them to throw an error if the template cannot be found. All code with a user-supplied template catches errors already, to handle template parse failures. It did not make sense for template_file to throw errors, as some code uses it to probe if a template file is available.
