Improve documentation of cartopy.feature.NaturalEarthFeature
Description
I'm having a hard time trying to plot terrain data. Anyway, to the point: the documentation of cartopy.feature.NaturalEarthFeature is not very helpful, especially in regards to the name argument:
- name – The name of the dataset, e.g. ‘admin_0_boundary_lines_land’.
What are other available names? The class documentation refers to https://www.naturalearthdata.com/, but there are no names listed.
Some hint on how to build a proper name would be appreciated, or more examples in the gallery.

It's tricky because Natural Earth doesn't really document those names either. You have to go to the download page and look at the URLs to pull out the name.
A pull request trying to simplify and succinctly document this would be welcome.
