text/template: detect unmatched else at parsing time

An unmatched {{else}} should trigger a parsing error.

The top level parser is able to issue an error in case
of unmatched {{end}}. It does it a posteriori (i.e. after having
parsed the action).

Extend this behavior to also check for unmatched {{else}}

Fixes #10611
