"""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.
