[svn-r12708] Description:

    Add the "use the latest version of the format" support to datatype
messages.  And a regression test to check that it's working.

    Also, found that we have been over-allocating space for compound datatype
messages (when they have array datatypes or can use the latest version of the
format) and trimmed the size back.

    Clean up datatype & dataspace encode/decode routines by having them
allocate & release "fake" file structures, which gets them out of needing to
"know" about the internals of file structures.

    Other minor whitespace/formatting cleanups, etc.

Tested on:
    Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
    Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
