Title: Add new setting EXTRA_TEMPLATES_PATHS

This setting allow to use template which are not in the theme.

Use case:

On the current blog that I m building using pelican, I want to have some html page which inherit from the base template.

- I cannot use Page because I want to use html and template language.
- I don't want it to be a static html to be able to inherit from my base template
- DIRECT_TEMPLATES assume that all templates exist in theme_path/templates

This new setting allow to split some template too specific from the theme, eg: Resume ,Profile
This should help to build more generic themes around the content only.

I hope that I didn't miss a feature which was already allowing to do that..
