[Feature Request] Add option to remove "Attached: Curriculum Vitae"

When applying for jobs through portals I don't think it makes any sense to sign off with that, so it would be great to have the option not to.

I wanted the same thing and was able to do it by installing modern-cv locally, and making some edits to the lib.typ template file. At the block of text starting line 692, edit it from:

Old

  
  let letter-conclusion = {
    align(bottom)[
      #pad(bottom: 2em)[
        #text(weight: "light")[#linguify(
            "sincerely",
            from: lang_data,
          )#sym.comma] \
        #text(weight: "bold")[#author.firstname #author.lastname] \ \
        #text(weight: "light", style: "italic")[ #linguify(
            "attached",
            from: lang_data,
          )#sym.colon #linguify("curriculum-vitae", from: lang_data)]
      ]
    ]
  }

to:

New

  
let letter-conclusion = {
  align(bottom)[
    #pad(bottom: 2em)[
      #text(weight: "light")[#linguify(
          "sincerely",
          from: lang_data,
        )#sym.comma] \
      #text(weight: "bold")[#author.firstname #author.lastname]
    ]
  ]
}

Then in your cover.typ, change line 1 to #import "@local/modern-cv:0.6.0": * where 'local' tells it to use your new locally edited template.

Good idea, this is definitely do-able.
