Fix syntax for < and > in c++-ts-mode (bug#60351)

< and > are usually punctuation, e.g., in ->.  But when used for
templates, they should be considered pairs.  Right now we always
consider them as pairs which is incorrect.

* lisp/progmodes/c-ts-mode.el (c++-ts-mode--syntax-table): Remove
variable.
(c-ts-mode--syntax-propertize): New function.
(c++-ts-mode): Remove syntax table.  Setup syntax-propertize-function.
