[rules-dev] [drools] Fixing issue where indented keywords would fail template expansion. (#170)

[Wolfgang Laun]

Even though I added some classes to the template package, my heart
never really was in it. I'm sure some considerably more powerful
implementations for template driven text generation are available
out there, and if this feature needs to be continued, basing it on
such a package would be far better than stumbling along with the
current solution.
