"""Adds new property templates to a property set template
Assuming you first have a property set template, this allows you to add
templates for properties within that property set. A property template
lets you specify the name, description, and data type of a property.
When the template is provided to a model author, this gives them clear
instructions about the intention of the property and exactly which data
type to use.
Types of properties and quantities include:
* P_SINGLEVALUE - a single value, the most common type of property.
* P_ENUMERATEDVALUE - the property value may one or more values chosen
from a preset list of values.
* P_BOUNDEDVALUE - the property has a minimum, maximum, and set value.
* P_LISTVALUE - the property has a list of values.
* P_TABLEVALUE - the property has a table of values.
* P_REFERENCEVALUE - the property is a parametric reference to another
value. This is only for advanced users.
* Q_LENGTH - the quantity is a length.
* Q_AREA - the quantity is an area.
* Q_VOLUME - the quantity is a volume.
* Q_COUNT - the quantity is counting a item.
* Q_WEIGHT - the quantity is a weight.
* Q_TIME - the quantity is a time duration.

"""Adds a new property set template
This creates a new template for property sets. A template defines what
the name of the property set should be, what properties it can have,
what entities (e.g. wall) the property set can be assigned to, whether
it should be assigned at a type or occurrence level, the data types of
the properties, and descriptions of the properties. This template can
then be used as a project, company, or local government standard.
buildingSMART itself ships a catalogue of property sets using these
templates, ensuring that internationally common properties (e.g. fire
rating of a wall) are all implemented exactly the same way across all
vendors and projects. Naturally, not everything can be standardised
internationally, so this allows you to create your own templates.
You may either create a property template to store properties, or a
quantity template to store quantities. For convenience, we will always
call them "property templates" as they are conceptually very similar.
This function only creates a template for the property set, not the
properties themselves within the property set. At this level, you are
allowed to define the name of the property set, whether it is type or
occurrence based, and which entities it applies to.
See the documentation for IfcPropertySetTemplate for instructions on
the types of template type and list of applicable entities.
The types of property set templates are:
* PSET_TYPEDRIVENONLY - assigned only to types
* PSET_TYPEDRIVENOVERRIDE - assigned to types or occurrences. If both,
the occurrence overrides the type.
* PSET_OCCURRENCEDRIVEN - assigned to occurrences only.
* PSET_PERFORMANCEDRIVEN - assigned as a timeseries data range. This is
only recommended for advanced users.
* QTO_TYPEDRIVENONLY - assigned only to types, but for quantities.
* QTO_TYPEDRIVENOVERRIDE - assigned to types or occurrences, but for
quantities. If both, the occurrence overrides the type.
* QTO_OCCURRENCEDRIVEN - assigned to occurrences only, but for
quantities.
By default, this creates a template that can be applied to types, but
overridden by occurrences, and is applicable to everything.

:param applicable_entity: The entity that this template is allowed to be
