feature: Support syncing projects back to the template #221

Similar to how we can use cruft to sync a cookiecutter repo back to the original template, I think it would be useful to implement something similar in scaffold.

My usecase for this is that I have a monorepo of various repo templates and I sometimes update them by adding new workflows or making various changes. It would be helpful to allow downstream repos to update themselves back to the upstream template to propagate those changes automatically

I think this is the same request as https://github.com/hay-kot/scaffold/discussions/173

Indeed it is! I did not think to look into discussions for this 😅

Should I close this as a duplicate?
