[svn-r17585] Purpose: Fix bug 1597
Description: When copying a dataset using a vlen inside a compound, the various dataset copying callbacks would allocate a background buffer but would not use it when converting from disk to memory, only memory to disk. This caused an assertion failure as compounds always need a background buffer. These callbacks have been modified to use the background buffer for both conversions. Tested: jam, linew, smirom (h5committest)
