Parameters center/endpoint/pole/width all accept a tuple of two values. This PR migrates them to the new alias system.

The length parameter is slightly complicated in that it can accept a tuple or a string "w" (with the long name "limit" from https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/blob/88b836ea9f6429e4d94fbadd508ef97497671eb1/src/longopt/project_inc.h#L37).

aliasdict = AliasSystem(
C=Alias(center, name="center", sep="/", size=2),
E=Alias(endpoint, name="endpoint", sep="/", size=2),
L=Alias(length, name="length", sep="/", size=2, mapping={"limit": "w"}),

I've added doctests in PR #4173 to ensure that parameters sep and mapping can coexist.
