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.

is rotating. The possible values are x or y, y being the default. Thus, the
scanning geometry of the Meteosat series satellite should take sweep as x, and
GOES should take sweep as y.
