Add default_displayname_template #869

I am having trouble with the displayname_template config option. As multiple people use my bridge I have to rely on .PushName as default name (which is unreliable for many users). I currently manually change the the name of these contacts (which is later overwritten by the bot). What I'm proposing is a default_displayname_template option that only applies the template on creation of a new account, without syncing it periodically.

  • In large groups some people still have a meaningful name
  • I can freely modify display names in a persistent manner

I believe multiple people have this issue and this seems like a relatively easy way to fix it.
