[svn-r20489] Bug 1386 - allow dimension size to be zero even though it isn't unlimited. I brought the changes from the trunk as below:
1. I added test cases for contiguous, compact, and chunked, and external storage datasets, and also attribute. The test includes dataspace selections. 2. I added a test case of extending dataset of zero dimension size and shrinking back to zero dimension size. 3. I updated the Makefile to include the new data file to be cleaned up. 4. The dataspace code has another bug - when the maximal dimension isn't passed in for H5Sset_extent_simple, it is supposed to be same as the dimension. The current library sets NULL to it. I corrected it and added a test case to it. 5. I corrected the tests of Fortran and C++ for the problem in point 3. Tested on jam, heiwa, and amani.
