Description

I was trying to add archive page template for custom post type archive-{post_type}.html from Site Editor but there is no option. Add new template option only for Front Page, Page, Author, Category, Date, Tag, Single item: Post and Custom template.

I have tried using Custom template but it only applied to any single post or page.

Another example is that I can add new template for Category which applies to all category terms but I can't add new template for specific term using slug (category-$slug.html) or ID (category-$id.html) as per the template hierarchy.

I can add templates as per hierarchy in block theme and it's working, and I can edit in Site Editor.

I don't know if there is planning to add more new template options as per template hierarchy. I believe more template options will help user to add new templates for specific content type.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Go to Appearance -> Editor.
2. Click on WordPress Logo to open left sidebar.
3. Click on Templates to see list of templates.
4. Click on Add New button which shows list of template types.

Expected behaviour

User able to add new templates as per template hierarchy.

Actual behaviour

User unable to add new templates as per template hierarchy.
