xsl scripts to generate programmer cheat sheets

Description

I usually create cheat sheets and post to BostonGIS.com for each version of PostGIS which seem fairly popular. Given we have so much in PostGIS 2.0, I generated some xsl scripts to standardize it and make it easier to generate and change.

I have this more or less done for topology and tiger geocoder. Which you can run with on r8058

cd doc
make topology_cheatsheet.html
make tiger_geocoder_cheatsheet.html

For the raster and PostGIS ones I may need to leave out the descriptions to make the function names fit on 3-4 pages. My ideal size is like a 2-3 pager for everything.

I'm thinking of having some way to designate what listings get included in cheat sheets as well - like a new tag or something as some functions are more common place than others. Right now I'm just outputting the first program listing from each function, which is still a lot even for topology.

any other thoughts are welcome.

Attached are the current generated tiger and topology versions.
