ISEA Inverse projection (OSGeo#3047)

- Integrating code ported from Java to eC, then eC to C++ implementing the inverse ISEA projection

 Icosahedral Snyder Equal Area

-Snyder's Icosahedral Equal Area map projections on polyhedral globes for the

+Snyder's Icosahedral Equal Area map projection on an icosahedron polyhedral globe
+offers relatively low scale and angular distortion. The equations involved are
+relatively straight-forward. The interruptions remain a disadvantage, as with
+any low-error projection system applied to the entire globe :cite:`Snyder1992`.
+This projection is used as a basis for defining discrete global grid hierarchies.
+
+.. note::
+   As the projection is only defined on a sphere, it should only be used
+   with a spherical ellipsoid e.g., ``+R=6371007.18091875`` for a sphere with the
+   authalic radius of the WGS84 ellipsoid. For mapping coordinates on the WGS84
+   ellipsoid to the authalic sphere, the input latitude should be converted
+   from geodetic latitude to authalic latitude. A future version may
+   automatically perform this conversion when using a non-spherical ellipsoid.
