I'm working on a program to process Wikipedia pages.  Wikipedia pages
can contain templates of the form:

{{template name
|key = value
|key2 = value2
|...
}}

Any value may in turn be a template, with essentially no limit to the
level of nesting.  Given a "key = value" pair, how would I go about
retrieving the entire template from the page?

In C, I'd use strstr() to find the "key = value" pair, walk my way
back up the string until I found an unmatched "{{" as the beginning of
the template, and walk down the string until I found an unmatched "}}"
as the end.  How would I do this in Perl?
