Avoid frustration for newcomers and offer a last resort for resolving dependencies. The dependencies install script may fail in certain OSes or distributions, adding the find modules to template project improves the experience once it falls back to FetchContent in case the package is not found.

This change also adopts the "CMake" dir name convention present everywhere in the code base (instead of the originally expected "cmake").
