[svn-r23510] I merged the changes for DESY project from the trunk (r23496) into this 1.8 DESY branch.

Tested with h5committest (duck failed with CMake because I don't know how to change test/CMakeLists.txt.  I'll wait for Allen to do it).

+ * Function:	H5P__set_filter
+ *
+ * Purpose:	Adds the specified FILTER and corresponding properties to the
+ *		end of the data or link output filter pipeline
+ *		depending on whether PLIST is a dataset creation or group
+ *		creation property list.  The FLAGS argument specifies certain
+ *		general properties of the filter and is documented below.
+ *		The CD_VALUES is an array of CD_NELMTS integers which are
+ *		auxiliary data for the filter.  The integer vlues will be
+ *		stored in the dataset object header as part of the filter
+ *		information.
+ *
+ * 		The FLAGS argument is a bit vector of the following fields:
+ *
+ * 		H5Z_FLAG_OPTIONAL(0x0001)
+ *		If this bit is set then the filter is optional.  If the
+ *		filter fails during an H5Dwrite() operation then the filter
+ *		is just excluded from the pipeline for the chunk for which it
+ *		failed; the filter will not participate in the pipeline
+ *		during an H5Dread() of the chunk.  If this bit is clear and
+ *		the filter fails then the entire I/O operation fails.
+ *		If this bit is set but encoding is disabled for a filter,
+ *		attempting to write will generate an error.
+ *
+ * Return:	Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
