Fix for github issue #2599: (#2665) (#2706)
* Fix for github issue #2599:
As indicated in the description, memory leak is detected when running "./h5dump pov".
The problem is: when calling H5O__add_cont_msg() from H5O__chunk_deserialize(),
memory is allocated for cont_msg_info->msgs. Eventually, when the library tries to load
the continuation message via H5AC_protect() in H5O_protect(), error is
encountered due to illegal info in the continuation message.
Due to the error, H5O_protect() exits but the memory allocated for cont_msg_info->msgs is not freed.
When we figure out how to handle fuzzed files that we didn't generate,
a test needs to be added to run h5dump with the provided "pov" file.
* Add message to release notes for the fix to github issue #2599.
