Perhaps better tie this literal 12 to the one used for declaring
struct hypfs_dyndir_id's name[] field, such that an eventual
change will need making in exactly one place?

const? (also in read_dyndir below)

Why does this pass the address of the template? If it truly is
(just) a template, then its dirlist ought to be empty at all
times? If otoh the "template" indeed gets used as a node in the
tree then perhaps it wants naming differently? "Stem" would come
to mind, but likely there are better alternatives. I've also
considered the German "Statthalter", but its English translations
don't seem reasonable to me here. And "placeholder" has kind of a
negative touch. (Also in this case some of my "const?" remarks
may be irrelevant.)

Further this and ...

... this using the template's funcs is somewhat unexpected, but
with the functions acting as the entry's .findentry() / .read()
hooks is obviously the right thing (and if the template is more
that what the word says, the consideration may become
inapplicable anyway). The implication is that the hooks
themselves can't be replaced, if need be down the road.

I can't seem to spot any consumer of this field: Is it really
needed?
