[svn-r7426] Purpose:
Bug fix Description: When datasets are deleted from a file, they are removed from the sieve buffer, but instead of invalidating only the part of the sieve buffer affected, the sieve buffer code would throw away the entire sieve buffer, potentially including other raw data in the buffer that hadn't been written to disk yet. Solution: Improve the sieve buffer clearing code to handle partial invalidations. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) h5committest

-------
+ - Corrected bug in sieve buffer code which could cause loss of data
+ when a small dataset was created and deleted in quick succession.
+ QAK - 2003/08/27
- Corrected bug in H5Gget_objname_by_idx which was not allowing NULL
for the name when just querying for the object name's length.
