[svn-r5535] Purpose:
New feature.
Description:
Added a "small data" block allocation mechanism to the library, similar to
the mechanism used for allocating metadata currently.
See the RFC for more details:
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/SmallData/SmallData.html
This reduces the number of I/O operations which hit the disk for my test
program from 19 to 15 (i.e. from 393 to 15, overall).
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/FORTRAN and FreeBSD 4.5 (sleipnir) w/C++
