Add Texas Instruments WQFN-16 RTE footprint with smaller EP than the existing WQFN-16 footprints

I added one missing variant of the Texas Instruments RTE package footprints (see #2645), with and without thermal vias. Both footprints were generated using the ipc_noLead_generator.py script. They still have klc-check violations concerning the paste and mask layer (like the already existing Texas_RTE_WQFN-16-1EP_3x3mm_P0.5mm_EP1.2x0.8mm and Texas_RTE_WQFN-16-1EP_3x3mm_P0.5mm_EP1.2x0.8mm_ThermalVias), even though paste and mask layer are present on all pads.

The footprints are - counterintuitively - NOT documented in https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/MPQF149.
