Creates and stores a scenario built from a pre-defined parameterised template, for example a
parallel rates shift or an equity crash. The template determines the scenario's shifts; the
parameters supply the targets (e.g. currency or instrument) and optionally override the default
shift size. The created scenario is stored in the given scope and behaves exactly like a
hand-built scenario.
            
Use ListScenarioTemplates to discover the available templates and, for each, the parameters it
accepts, their defaults and their units. A parameter the template does not read is rejected
rather than ignored, and parameter names are case-sensitive.
