Fixed an uninitialized filter callback struct in H5Dchunk.c and
unified the naming and initialization of said struct throughout the library. This was causing a crash on VS2015 in debug mode when the debug heap complained. Fixes HDFFV-10330.

+ - An uninitialized struct could cause a memory access error when using
+ variable-length or reference types in a compressed, chunked dataset.
+
+ A struct containing a callback function pointer and a pointer to some
+ associated data was used before initialization. This could cause a
+ memory access error and system crash. This could only occur under
+ unusual conditions when using variable-lenth and reference types in
+ a compressed, chunked dataset.
+
+ On recent versions of Visual Studio, when built in debug mode, the
+ debug heap will complain and cause a crash if the code in question
+ is executed (this will cause the objcopy test to fail).
