/// Notes:
///
/// 1) utc1+utc2 is quasi Julian Date (see Note 2), apportioned in any
/// convenient way between the two arguments, for example where utc1
/// is the Julian Day Number and utc2 is the fraction of a day.
///
/// However, JD cannot unambiguously represent UTC during a leap
/// second unless special measures are taken. The convention in the
/// present function is that the JD day represents UTC days whether
/// the length is 86399, 86400 or 86401 SI seconds.
///
/// Applications should use the function iauDtf2d to convert from
/// calendar date and time of day into 2-part quasi Julian Date, as
/// it implements the leap-second-ambiguity convention just
/// described.
///
/// 2) The warning status "dubious year" flags UTCs that predate the
/// introduction of the time scale or that are too far in the
/// future to be trusted. See iauDat for further details.
///
/// 3) UT1-UTC is tabulated in IERS bulletins. It increases by exactly
/// one second at the end of each positive UTC leap second,
/// introduced in order to keep UT1-UTC within +/- 0.9s. n.b. This
/// practice is under review, and in the future UT1-UTC may grow
/// essentially without limit.
///
/// 4) The geographical coordinates are with respect to the WGS84
/// reference ellipsoid. TAKE CARE WITH THE LONGITUDE SIGN: the
/// longitude required by the present function is east-positive
/// (i.e. right-handed), in accordance with geographical convention.
///
/// 5) The polar motion xp,yp can be obtained from IERS bulletins. The
/// values are the coordinates (in radians) of the Celestial
/// Intermediate Pole with respect to the International Terrestrial
/// Reference System (see IERS Conventions 2003), measured along the
/// meridians 0 and 90 deg west respectively. For many
/// applications, xp and yp can be set to zero.
///
/// Internally, the polar motion is stored in a form rotated onto
/// the local meridian.
///
/// 6) If hm, the height above the ellipsoid of the observing station
/// in meters, is not known but phpa, the pressure in hPa (=mB), is
/// available, an adequate estimate of hm can be obtained from the
/// expression
///
/// hm = -29.3 * tsl * log ( phpa / 1013.25 );
///
/// where tsl is the approximate sea-level air temperature in K
/// (See Astrophysical Quantities, C.W.Allen, 3rd edition, section
/// 52). Similarly, if the pressure phpa is not known, it can be
/// estimated from the height of the observing station, hm, as
/// follows:
///
/// phpa = 1013.25 * exp ( -hm / ( 29.3 * tsl ) );
///
/// Note, however, that the refraction is nearly proportional to
/// the pressure and that an accurate phpa value is important for
/// precise work.
///
/// 7) The argument wl specifies the observing wavelength in
/// micrometers. The transition from optical to radio is assumed to
/// occur at 100 micrometers (about 3000 GHz).
///
/// 8) It is advisable to take great care with units, as even unlikely
/// values of the input parameters are accepted and processed in
/// accordance with the models used.
///
/// 9) In cases where the caller wishes to supply his own Earth
/// ephemeris, Earth rotation information and refraction constants,
/// the function iauApco can be used instead of the present function.
///
/// 10) This is one of several functions that inserts into the astrom
/// structure star-independent parameters needed for the chain of
/// astrometric transformations ICRS <-> GCRS <-> CIRS <-> observed.
///
/// The various functions support different classes of observer and
/// portions of the transformation chain:
/// ```
/// functions observer transformation
///
/// iauApcg iauApcg13 geocentric ICRS <-> GCRS
/// iauApci iauApci13 terrestrial ICRS <-> CIRS
/// iauApco iauApco13 terrestrial ICRS <-> observed
/// iauApcs iauApcs13 space ICRS <-> GCRS
/// iauAper iauAper13 terrestrial update Earth rotation
/// iauApio iauApio13 terrestrial CIRS <-> observed
/// ```
/// Those with names ending in "13" use contemporary SOFA models to
/// compute the various ephemerides. The others accept ephemerides
/// supplied by the caller.
///
/// The transformation from ICRS to GCRS covers space motion,
/// parallax, light deflection, and aberration. From GCRS to CIRS
/// comprises frame bias and precession-nutation. From CIRS to
/// observed takes account of Earth rotation, polar motion, diurnal
/// aberration and parallax (unless subsumed into the ICRS <-> GCRS
/// transformation), and atmospheric refraction.
///
/// 11) The context structure astrom produced by this function is used
/// by iauAtioq, iauAtoiq, iauAtciq* and iauAticq*.
