-------
+ - Performance issue with H5Oget_info
+
+ H5Oget_info family of routines retrieves information for an object such
+ as object type, access time, number of attributes, and storage space etc.
+ Retrieving all such information regardless is an overkill and causes
+ performance issue when doing so for many objects.
+
+ Add an additional parameter "fields" to the the H5Oget_info family of routines
+ indicating the type of information to be retrieved. The same is done to
+ the H5Ovisit family of routines which recursively visits an object
+ returning object information in a callback function. Both sets of routines
+ are versioned and the corresponding compatibility macros are added.
+
+ The version 2 names of the two sets of routines are:
+ (1) H5Oget_info2, H5Oget_info_by_idx2, H5Oget_info_by_name2
+ (2) H5Ovisit2, H5Ovisit_by_name2

- Test failure due to metadata size in test/vds.c
The size of metadata from test_api_get_ex_dcpl() in test/vds.c is not as expected
