template: add pad function for padding output

Adds a pad template function with the following signature:

pad(text, width, fillchar=' ', right=False)

This uses the standard python ljust and rjust functions to produce a string
that is at least a certain width. This is useful for aligning variable length
strings in log output (like user names or shortest(node) output).
