Refactor operation doc pages
Extended the use of the :option: directive to all currently written operation doc pages. In the process several more default parameters were added for easy inclusion in other doc pages. Expanded the info tables for each operation with "domain", "alias", "input type" and "output type". Corrected various errors along the way. Mainly formatting errors and references to invalid parameters such as +sym in hatano.

Lat/long (Geodetic alias)
********************************************************************************
+Passes geodetic coordinates through unchanged.

+Parameters
+################################################################################
+
+No parameters will affect the output of the operation if used on it's own.
+However, the parameters below can be used in a declarative manner when used with
+:program:`cs2cs` or in a :ref:`transformation pipeline <pipeline>` .
+
+.. include:: ../options/ellps.rst
+
+.. option:: +datum=<value>
+
+ Declare the datum used with the coordinates. See ``cs2cs -l`` for a
+ list of available datums.
+
+.. option:: +towgs84=<list>
+
+ A list of three or seven :ref:`Helmert <helmert>` parameters that maps
+ the input coordinates to the WGS84 datum.
