fix: Correct style option defaults (#300)

* fix: Correct the documented style option defaults

Partially address #299:
- Change the documented default from `nodetails` to `details` for the
  `classic`, `banking`, `oldstyle`, and `fancy` styles, to match the current
  implementation.

* fix: Set the `details` option explicitly as default in the banking style (#299)

* fix: Add missing options to the `contemporary` style

Address #299:
- Add the missing `details` and `nodetails` options.
- Set `details` and `separator` as explicit defaults using `\ExecuteOptions`.
- Add per-group comments for all option categories.

* docs: Add a summary of the PR changes to `CHANGELOG`
