[svn-r353] Changes since 19980414

---------------------- ./html/Compression.html [NEW] ./html/Datasets.html ./html/H5.format.html ./html/H5.user.html Documented compression. A couple of the H5P functions aren't quite implemented yet but they're coming soon... ./src/H5Dprivate.h ./src/H5E.c ./src/H5Epublic.h ./src/H5Farray.c ./src/H5Fistore.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h ./src/H5MF.c ./src/H5MFprivate.h ./src/H5O.c ./src/H5Ocomp.c [NEW] ./src/H5Oprivate.h ./src/H5P.c ./src/H5Ppublic.h ./src/H5Sprivate.h ./src/H5Ssimp.c ./src/H5Z.c [NEW] ./src/H5Zprivate.h [NEW] ./src/H5Zpublic.h [NEW] ./src/Makefile.in ./src/hdf5.h ./test/dsets.c ./test/istore.c Compression is now mostly working. Don't try to open a compressed dataset though because the compression message won't be read. ./html/Datatypes.html ./html/H5.api.html ./src/H5.c ./src/H5private.h ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5T.c ./src/H5Tconv.c ./src/H5Tpkg.h ./src/H5Tprivate.h ./src/H5Tpublic.h Added timing support. When compiled with H5T_DEBUG defined the library will print conversion bandwidths when the library closes. The H5Tregister functions take a string as the first argument so the statistics output is meaningful. ./MANIFEST Added new files. ./configure.in ./src/H5config.h.in Check for getrusage(). Check for compress2() in libz.a and the zlib.h header file. Added `z' to the debug list. ./src/H5B.c ./src/H5Bprivate.h ./src/H5Gnode.c ./src/debug.c Cleaned up some indentation and added support to print istore B-trees. From the debugger, give the B-tree address and the dimensionality from the layout message of the object header. ./src/h5ls.c The oid is printed as w:x:y:z where w and x are the file ID and y and z are the OID within the file. You can give z or y*2^32+z as an argument to the debugger to print the object header for the object. ./src/H5AC.c Cleaned up statistics and made them match those reported by H5T and H5Z. ./src/H5MM.c ./src/H5MMprivate.h ./src/H5Fistore.c Finally got rid of a couple of long-standing const cast warnings.

+ *		a new address.  The chunk to change is at address ORIG_ADDR
+ *		and is exactly ORIG_SIZE bytes (if these are zero and undef
+ *		then this function acts like H5MF_alloc).  The new size will
+ *		be NEW_SIZE and its address is returned though NEW_ADDR (if
+ *		NEW_SIZE is zero then this function acts like H5MF_free and
+ *		an undefined address is returned for NEW_ADDR).
+ *
+ *		If the new size is less than the old size then the new
+ *		address will be the same as the old address (except for the
+ *		special case where the new size is zero).
+ *
+ *		If the new size is more than the old size then most likely a
