Description

Visual Studio version: 18.3.1

As a VS user I install Cesium templates using the steps from the [README.md](https://github.com/ForNeVeR/Cesium?tab=readme-ov-file#installation):
```
$ dotnet new install Cesium.Templates
```
Note that the templates are installed from Cesium.Templates folder of Cesium repo. More info is here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/templates?pivots=os-windows#folder

When I open Create New Project dialog in VS, I see the installed templates:

However, when I press "Create" button in Template Creation dialog I see the following error:

I believe this is a problem, and I don't have any logs to understand what's going wrong on the Visual Studio side.
Please provide more info or any suggestions how to diagnose it.

Research direction

Start with README.md's installation instructions and the Cesium.Templates folder, then reproduce the failure using `dotnet new install Cesium.Templates` and Visual Studio 18.3.1. Investigate the template creation error and determine what diagnostic information identifies its cause; done means the templates create a project successfully or the failure is documented with actionable logs.
