- - Add CMake variable HDF5_LIB_INFIX

- This infix is added to all library names after 'hdf5'.
- e.g. the infix '_openmpi' results in the library name 'libhdf5_openmpi.so'
- This name is used in packages on debian based systems.

- Removal of pre-VS2015 work-arounds
HDF5 now requires Visual Studio 2015 or greater, so old work-around

+ - Changed how h5dump and h5ls identify long double.
+
+ Long double support is not consistent across platforms. Tools will always
+ identify long double as 128-bit [little/big]-endian float nn-bit precision.
+ New test file created for datasets with attributes for float, double and
+ long double. In addition any unknown integer or float datatype will now
+ also show the number of bits for precision.
+ These files are also used in the java tests.

- Fixed tools argument parsing.
Tools parsing used the length of the option from the long array to match
