## Usage
```
const tpl = require('@tryghost/tpl');
messages = {
myError: 'Something terrible happened to {something}'
};
console.error(tpl(messages.myError, {something: 'The thing'}));
```
* Takes strings like 'Your site is now available on {url}' and interpolates them with passed in data
* Will ignore double or triple braces like {{get}} or {{{content}}}
* Can handle escaped braces e.g. \\\\{\\\\{{helpername}\\\\}\\\\}
* There's a simple bare minimum escaping needed to make {{{helpername}}} work with interpolation e.g. {\\\\{{helpername}}}
