Investigate the possibly to include giter8 templates

As per the gitter discussion - it would be good if there was an easy way to find giter8 templates, and scaladex seems like a good candidate.

that's a good idea.

We need to query the GitHub api with something like: https://github.com/search?l=Scala&q=%2A.g8&type=Repositories&utf8=%E2%9C%93

Where do you think it could fit in the UI?

I think it could be intertwined with projects in the search result view. https://index.scala-lang.org/search?q=

UI wise, the smallest thing that's actually an improvement is probably have a filter whether you're searing for libraries or templates, intertwine in the result list but clearly mark templates and libraries differently.
