They *should not* but they *can*.

Let's suppose Kimchi receives the following command:

POST /templates/ {'name': 'template-foo', 'vm': 'existing-vm', 'cpus': 8}

What will happen here? How many CPUs will the new template have: the 
number of CPUs on the guest 'existing-vm' or 8?

This should be clear to the user when creating a template from a VM: if 
they can also specify other values to overwrite from the base VM or if 
they cannot set anything else.
