This changes the interface of the mkp template NAME command. The created manifest template is now written to stdout instead of tmp/check_mk/NAME.manifest.temp. Users now have to pipe the output into whichever file they see fit. The synopsis of the command remains unchanged. So, to get the same behavior as before, you'd run:

mkp template NAME > tmp/check_mk/NAME.manifest.tmp
