conf, passt.h: Rename "outbound" interface to "template" interface

In preparation for the next patch, make it clear that the first
routable interface fetched via netlink, or the one configured via
-i/--interface, is simply used as template to copy addresses and
routes, not an interface we actually use to derive the source address
(which will be _bound to_) for outgoing packets.

The man page and usage message appear to be already clear enough.
