CC Mode 5.28 (C++); trouble formatting template decls

[Geoffrey Furnish <furnish@xiphi.lsscorp.com>]

Hello Barry,

I'm not sure this counts as a bug report, maybe more like an enhancement
request.

I was kinda hoping that cc-mode would help me out with auto indenting of
complex template parameter lists in template decls.  These are becoming a
little more idiomatic these days.  Here's an example of what cc-mode is doing
right now:

template<
    class A,
    template<
    class T,
    class U
    > class B,

    template
    <
    class R,
    class S
    >

What I was hoping for was something like this:

template<
    class A,
    template<
        class T,
        class U
    > class B,
                            // or maybe with hanging <, like this:
    template
    <
        class R,
        class S
    > class C
> class X {};

In other words, inside a template decl, <> should behave kinda like {}.
