Continuing progress towards addressing #4960 by adding a page for "modular methods". At the moment this is just
crtand related methods, there is still a bit of work to do streamlining docstrings and probably also in making the interfaces consistent (in particular, some but not all methods havecheckkeyword option; relevant methods also have asignedpositional argument that would be better as a keyword option; at least in one case asignedmethod is called ascrt_signedinstead of using an optional argument.)
