Send email to customer when order is cancelled by admin

When a shop admin manually cancels an order (status = cancelled), WooCommerce only sends an email to the admin – not to the customer.
This is problematic in real-world use cases (like 3D printing), where an order cannot be fulfilled due to model issues or material constraints.
There should be a setting to also notify the customer with a customizable cancellation message, ideally including refund info.
Currently, there is no way to define “customer” as a recipient in the cancelled-order email template.
