Merge VOL framework versioning to 1.12 (#154)
* Enforce VOL framework version compatibility when registering connectors. Also add a version for the connector itself, some refactoring on the register calls, and move the logic for matching / rejecting a VOL connector class from the plugin module to the VOL module. (#151) * Revise VOL framework version compatibility for the 1.12 release branch

Library:
--------
+ - Added H5VL_VERSION macro that indicates the version of the VOL framework
+ implemented by a version of the library. Currently, compatibility
+ checking enforces that the 'version' field in the H5VL_class_t for
+ a VOL connector must match the version of the VOL framework for the
+ library when it is registered or dynamically loaded.

- Added two new API routines for tracking library memory use:
H5get_alloc_stats() and H5get_free_list_sizes().
