[Catalyst] Often used templates as method

[Daniel McBrearty]

well, if you make the structure of your templates mirror that of your
controllers and actions, and use the end action that is shown in the
tutorial, you don't have to define the template per action - the
request gets automatically routed to the one with the same name as the
action.
