[svn-r9250] Purpose:
Bug fix Description: Correct typedef for dataset region references to avoid struct alignment issues on Crays. Solution: Change the typedef for hdset_reg_ref_t from a struct to an array of unsigned char's of the correct size and propagate the appropriate adjustments around the code. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) Linux 2.4 (verbena) w/fortran Cray T90 (subzero) w/fortran Cray SV1 (wind) w/fortran & parallel Cray T3E (cyclone) w/fortran & parallel

-------
+ - Corrected error where dataset region references were written in an
+ incorrect way on Cray machines. PVN & QAK - 2004/09/13
- The H5Tget_native_type now determines the native type for integers
- based on the precision. This is to avoid cases of wrongly converting
- an int to a short in machines that have a short of 8 bytes but with
- 32bit precision (e.g Cray SV1). PVN - 2004/09/07

- Changed H5Dread() to not overwrite data in an application's buffer
with garbage when accessing a chunked dataset with an undefined
fill value and an unwritten chunk is uncountered. QAK - 2004/08/25
