Minimize custom functions in template

[mintyfrankie]

Due to current Typst constraint, one still has to include some custom hacky functions in the template files. For example, in cy.typ when importing:

#import "@preview/brilliant-cv:2.1.0": cv
#let metadata = toml("./metadata.toml")
#let import-modules(modules, lang: metadata.language) = {
  for module in modules {
    include {
      "modules_" + lang + "/" + module + ".typ"
    }
  }
}

Instead of an ideal way:

#import "@preview/brilliant-cv:2.1.0": cv

This involves several files:

• the cv.typ and letter.typ
• every module file having to add something like #let cv-section = cv-section.with(metadata: metadata)

This involves two technical issues:

• The path handling mechanism not being mature and stable
• The code evaluation and execution issue

More to update in this thread, and we will see how to tackle them with Typst's upgrades.
