3.44.4 Template engine

Guile's standard library SXML implementation
- GNU software manual: https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/SXML.html
- Basically your templates become functions or macros.
- The structure of your document is kept as Scheme data structures.
  - This avoids having parse the document as a long string into an internal data structure to perform semantic transformations.
  - It enables pattern matching without resorting to things like regular expressions and similar shenanigans.
