Allow Developers to create a new project from project templates

Javiera Tapia requested to merge 414046-allow-developers-to-create-project-from-template into master

What does this MR do and why?

This MR fixes the behavior of a developer who can create projects using a built-in or sample template and cannot import those templates since the import process now requires a minimum role of the maintainer. However, these permissions should not affect the creation of projects from templates.
