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.

# IterableVal
- `IterableVal()`
Validates whether the input is an iterable value, in other words, if you can iterate over it with the [foreach][] language construct.
```php
v::iterableVal()->isValid([]); // true
v::iterableVal()->isValid(new ArrayObject()); // true
v::iterableVal()->isValid(new stdClass()); // true
v::iterableVal()->isValid('string'); // false
```
## Note
This rule doesn't behave as PHP's [is_iterable() function because it considers that you can iterate over any object.
## Templates
