Add templates to each rule documentation
They only know what message a rule produces when they try running it.
Including the messages in the documentation will make it easier for
people to know what to expect.

There are a couple of undocumented placeholders, but I can live with
that for now.

# Key
- `Key(int|string $key, Rule $rule)`
Validates the value of an array against a given rule.
```php
v::key('name', v::stringType())->isValid(['name' => 'The Respect Panda']); // true
v::key('email', v::email())->isValid(['email' => 'therespectpanda@gmail.com']); // true
v::key('age', v::intVal())->isValid([]); // false
```
You can also use `Key` to validate nested arrays:
```php
v::key(
'payment_details',
v::key('credit_card', v::creditCard())
)->isValid([
'payment_details' => [
'credit_card' => '5376 7473 9720 8720',
],
]); // true
```
The name of this validator is automatically set to the key name.
```php
v::key('email', v::email())->assert([]);
// message: email must be present
v::key('email', v::email())->assert(['email' => 'not email']);
// message: email must be valid email
```
## Note
* To validate if a key exists, use [KeyExists](KeyExists.md) instead.
* To validate an array against a given rule if the key exists, use [KeyOptional](KeyOptional.md) instead.
