Check templates when associating with hostgroup
Description
We see people struggling with HG provisioning using templates which cannot be used. I think we could prevent from this if we try to render the template the moment it is being associated with a hostgroup. And the same when template is saved, but associated as well.
This way we can error out early not allowing users to add new items to the default pxe menu.

No we want to check:
- association
- template change
- hostgroup change

Association of a template to a host group doesn't imply that host group-based provisioning is being used, it may just be association to use it for regular provisioning over the OS default.

What do you mean by "regular provisioning over the OS default"?
Updated by Dominic Cleal over 8 years ago
Regular provisioning, preferring the associated template instead of the OS default.
