fix: let Templater own date-system templates

Leave the default Journal and Meeting systems without a raw Waypoint template so Templater folder triggers own interactive rendering. Their fallback frontmatter now matches the journal and meeting types. Document the required folder-trigger setup and selected-date filename contract.

+### Templater folder templates
+
+If a date system uses a Templater folder mapping, leave its Waypoint **Template file** field blank. Waypoint then creates a safe fallback note while Templater owns prompts, scripts, cursors, and rendered content.
+
+The selected calendar date is encoded in the filename. Templater templates should derive their `date` from `tp.file.title`, not from `tp.date` or `tp.file.creation_date()`. A journal template can retain a prompt-and-rename fallback for manual note creation, but it must skip that flow when the filename already follows `YYYY-MM-DD - Journal`.
