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 two sets of routines are:
+ (1) H5Oget_info2, H5Oget_info_by_idx2, H5Oget_info_by_name2
+ (2) H5Ovisit2, H5Ovisit_by_name2
+
+ Existing applications that use the H5Oget_info family of routines should either
+ (a) add the new parameter "fields" or (b) add version 1 to the
+ H5Oget_info calls. For example:
+ (a) H5Oget_info(object_id, object_info, fields)
+ (b) H5Oget_info1(object_id, object_info)
