[svn-r27961] Purpose: Partial fix of issues HDFFV-9169 and HDFFV-9167

Description:
    Added wrappers for H5P[s/g]et_attr_phase_change and H5P[s/g]et_attr_creation_order

    // Sets attribute storage phase change thresholds.
    void setAttrPhaseChange(unsigned max_compact = 8, unsigned min_dense = 6)

    // Gets attribute storage phase change thresholds.
    void getAttrPhaseChange(unsigned& max_compact, unsigned& min_dense)

    // Sets tracking and indexing of attribute creation order.
    void setAttrCrtOrder(unsigned crt_order_flags)

    // Gets tracking and indexing settings for attribute creation order.
    unsigned getAttrCrtOrder()

Platforms tested:
    Linux/32 2.6 (jam)
    Linux/64 (platypus)
    Darwin (osx1010test)
