[Request] UI to create new project

Ability to start a new vala project with GUI to setup meson.build

Valdo has several Vala project templates already. Maybe the GUI could integrate with the valdo project somehow?

This has already been looked into fairly extensively- see project and https://github.com/elementary/code/issues/1169. In the end it was considered that it lead to too great complexity and solutions based on snippets and template files (see https://github.com/elementary/code/issues/297) were more achievable. There was a PR for implementing snippets a while back but it failed for some reason. Issue #297 seems to be the most promising to me.

I made an attempt to create a skeleton elementary app (Flatpak) https://github.com/jeremypw/skeleton but haven't pursued it.

code already has a support for "templates", via plugins. it just need someone to write one for valdo.
