Subject: [PATCH] docs(space_ops): fix return order in cartesian_to_spherical
 docstring

The docstring claimed the returned array is (distance, phi, theta), but
the function actually returns np.array([r, theta, phi]) -- matching
spherical_to_cartesian's own docstring/unpacking order (r, theta, phi).
Only the docstring text was wrong; no behavior change.
