Bring the H5detect removal change from develop (#3648)

* Bring the H5detect removal change from develop

- Removed CMake cross-compiling variables                                    
                                                                             
  * HDF5_USE_PREGEN                                                          
  * HDF5_BATCH_H5DETECT                                                      
                                                                             
  These were used to work around H5detect and H5make_libsettings and         
  are no longer required.                                                    
                                                                             
- Running H5make_libsettings is no longer required for cross-compiling       
                                                                             
  The functionality of H5make_libsettings is now handled via template files, 
  so H5make_libsettings has been removed.                                    
                                                                             
- Running H5detect is no longer required for cross-compiling                 
                                                                             
  The functionality of H5detect is now exercised at library startup,         
  so H5detect has been removed.

* Put H5T_CONV_ab macros in do..while loops (#3432)

Ever since a recent round of macro cleanup, bin/trace and clang-format
have been bickering over what H5Tconv.c should look like and neither
produces readable code.

This change puts the top-level H5T_CONV_ab macros in do..while loops,
adds appropriate semicolons, and adds the missing H5_CLANG_DIAG_ON|OFF
and H5_GCC_CLANG_DIAG_ON|OFF macros to the list of statement macros
clang-format recognizes. H5Tconv.c is now readable and both bin/trace
and clang-format are happy.

-VI.    Other cross compiling options
-========================================================================
-Settings for two other cross-compiling options are also in the config/toolchain
-files which do not seem to be necessary with the Cray PrgEnv-* modules
-
-1.  HDF5_USE_PREGEN.  This option, along with the HDF5_USE_PREGEN_DIR CMake
-    variable would allow the use of an appropriate H5Tinit.c file with type
-    information generated on a compute node to be used when cross compiling
-    for those compute nodes.  The use of the variables in lines 110 and 111
-    of HDF5options.cmake file seem to preclude needing this option with the
-    available Cray modules and CMake option.
-
-2.  HDF5_BATCH_H5DETECT and associated CMake variables.  This option when
-    properly configured will run H5detect in a batch job on a compute node
-    at the beginning of the CMake build process.  It was also found to be
-    unnecessary with the available Cray modules and CMake options.
