[svn-r21870] Purpose:
Fix for HDFFV-7840 h5repack: memory leak over one of the h5diff test file Description: Turned out that there were two causes of memory leaks. 1. for handling variable length string in attribute. 2. for handling compound type with non-reference members. The first issue is fixed in copy_attr() which is updated to use h5tools_detect_vlen to take care of vlen string as well as vlen data. The second is fixed in copy_refs_attr() of compound handling code. Merged from HDF5 trunk r21869. Tested: jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), Cmake (jam)
