ui: the ClassicAPI-era templates addons inherit by name

`CreateFrame(): Couldn't find inherited node "DialogBorderOpaqueTemplate"` is where
OpenMapClassic stopped — on its first file, inside Ace3, before a line of its own code ran.
It is not that addon's problem: `BackdropTemplate` is named **unguarded** by Ace3 itself
(`AceGUIContainer-Frame.lua:179` and `:206`, `AceGUIContainer-DropDownGroup.lua:128`), so
every Ace3 addon on this install hits it.

`assets/ui` does not grow, so this file carries its reason on that wall's own list: there is
no stock 1.12 file to migrate from, because 1.12 has neither template. They are the same kind
of surface as `script/compat/`'s verbs and live in XML only because `inherits=` is resolved by
the loader and cannot be answered from Lua.

**`BackdropTemplate` is correctly empty.** 9.0 moved the backdrop off the C side and invented
`BackdropTemplateMixin` to put it back; 1.12 still has `SetBackdrop`/`GetBackdrop`/
`SetBackdropColor`/`SetBackdropBorderColor` as real frame methods, so a frame inheriting the
template already answers all four. The mixin table exists for the
`BackdropTemplateMixin and "BackdropTemplate" or nil` idiom and for `Mixin()`, its rows
forwarding to the stock methods. **No getter rows**: a forwarding `GetBackdropColor` would
call itself once `Mixin()` had written it onto the frame, and the stock one already answers.

The dialog border is one `<Backdrop>` over this client's own dialog art — the shape every
stock 1.12 dialog draws, and the same block `GameMenuFrame.xml` uses — rather than a
transcription of Era's nine `SharedUIPanelTemplates.xml` textures. The opaque variant differs
only in background alpha, which is the one thing the two names disagree about. `enableMouse`
stays off: it is a decoration over a frame that handles its own input, and a border that ate
clicks would make an Ace options window unusable.

Movement: openmap `AceConfigDialog:573` → `:586`, now wanting `SetNormalFontObject`.

Full chain green.

+        The ClassicAPI-era FrameXML templates addons on this install inherit by name. Not windows:
+        there is nothing to migrate, because 1.12 does not have these templates at all — they are
+        the same kind of surface as `script/compat/`'s verbs, declared here because `inherits=` is
+        resolved by the XML loader and cannot be answered from Lua.
+
+        Both are used **unguarded inside Ace3 itself**, so this is not one addon's problem:
+        `AceGUIContainer-Frame.lua:179` and `:206` and `AceGUIContainer-DropDownGroup.lua:128`
+        name `BackdropTemplate`, and `AceConfigDialog-3.0.lua:573` names
+        `DialogBorderOpaqueTemplate`. A missing template makes `CreateFrame` raise
+        ("Couldn't find inherited node"), which is where OpenMapClassic stopped — on its first
+        file, in a library, before a line of its own code ran.

+        9.0 moved the backdrop off the C side and gave addons `BackdropTemplateMixin` to put it
+        back; 1.12 has `SetBackdrop`/`GetBackdrop`/`SetBackdropColor`/`SetBackdropBorderColor` as
+        real frame methods, so the template is correctly **empty** — a frame inheriting it already
+        answers all four. The global the mixin idiom tests for
+        (`BackdropTemplateMixin and "BackdropTemplate" or nil`) is set beside it, its methods
+        forwarding to those stock ones so `Mixin(f, BackdropTemplateMixin)` is a no-op rather than
+        a shadow. `OnBackdropLoaded`/`OnBackdropSizeChanged` are the hooks 9.0's own template
+        fires; ours have nothing to recompute, and an addon that calls one gets a function rather
+        than a nil.
