Description

## Description

An expression in the child position (aka text position) can return a node or iterable of nodes, something that can be used to integrate the output of other libraries into a Lit template. We don't really cover this at the moment.

## Acceptance criteria

Section on working with other libraries that describes, at minimum, using child position expressions to inject nodes into the templated DOM.

Research direction

The issue does not name a documentation file or test. Locate the Lit template documentation, read the surrounding sections on child-position expressions, and add a section explaining how to inject nodes from other libraries; done means the section covers node and iterable-of-node values.
