Danijel Martinek d32464c94b docs(compliance): add skeleton policy templates (backup, password, device, onboarding, offboarding)
Five skeleton templates for docs/compliance/templates/. Each has YAML
frontmatter (status: template, playbook-section), a "not code-enforced"
banner, and [FILL IN:] markers throughout. password-policy banner cites
ADR-025 §Deferred items by number (MFA + password policy + lockout
deferral). Cross-template relative links all resolve.
