Fix for HDFFV-10840: Instead of using fill->buf for datatype conversion (#2153) (#2326)
* Fix for HDFFV-10840: Instead of using fill->buf for datatype conversion
if it is large enough, a buffer is allocated regardless so that the element
in fill->buf can later be reclaimed.
Valgrind is run on test/set_extent.c and there is no memory leak.
* Add information of this fix to release notes.
