[svn-r18535] Purpose: Fix bug 1815
Description: Attempting to copy an object with NULL references (all bytes zero) with the H5O_COPY_EXPAND_REFERENCE_FLAG flag set would cause a failure or an assertion (depending on whether it was in debug mode). Changed copy routine to detect NULL references (object and region) and avoid attempting to expand the reference in this case. Tested: jam, linew, amani (h5committest)
