Email Templates as Content Entities

Problem/Motivation

It would be great to give an editor the ability to create their own email content Templates.
The Email template should be content, so a user can add/edit/delete them.

(In my case, a user should have the ability to create an email template and reference this mail template into a group. Which should be sent later if a member join for example.)

Proposed resolution

* Add a new field "template" to the Entity type.
* Add a new tab "Email Templates" with a list of all email templates. (A list EasyEmail entities marked as template)
* "Add Email Template" renders the Email entity with a reduced form and in form mode "template".
* Add Emails also provides a list of Email Template and duplicate these "template entity" (Maybe separate issue)

Hope my explanation is clear enough. Would you review an MR for this?

    I agree that these do not need translations. Also, the translation issue has stalled.

    + 1 for it's important to move forward with providing users with template creation.

    An easy solution is to ignore Easy Email config entities using the Config Ignore module → . That way, email types aren't deleted when importing config, which basically makes them content.

    I agree with the suggestion of @DieterHolvoet that using Config Ignore is a simpler way to achieve basically the same thing as having templates be content entities. I'm going to close this as won't fix.
