[svn-r9958] Purpose: Bug fix
Description: For variable-length string, H5Tget_class returned H5T_STRING as its class. But H5Tdetect_class and H5Tget_member_class considered it as H5T_VLEN. This is fixed to let all these 3 functions treat it as H5T_STRING. A few more test cases are also added to dtypes.c Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss Misc. update: RELEASE.txt

- The byte order of all 1-byte integer types was fixed as
little-endian even on a big-endian machine. It's corrected.
