Switch on a trigger template

Makes the trigger of a trigger template for the teammate of its role: each time its event comes in Troopy, the teammate gets a task with the instructions of the template. It hires the role first when nobody holds it. A trigger template that is on already gives its trigger as it is. Change the instructions with PATCH /triggers/{id}. Needs an owner or admin, and the services of the role connected. A routine template, a ready skill and a built-in template give 404.
