Prune the QUIP life-cycle and add a QUIP template

The template.rst will make it easier for future QUIP authors to get
started.  In the course of review of it, we decided that QUIP-1
offered too many options for Status: it was based on the PEP
life-cycle where we have settled on a simpler life-cycle for QUIPs.
So pruned the list of Status options and made references to the PEP
system explicit by providing links.
