[svn-r9580] Purpose:

    Add new internal data structure

Description:
    Add an implementation of skip lists to the library (see comment in
src/H5SL.c for references to the papers describing them) as a potential
replacement for our current threaded, balanced binary tree container.
Skip lists are much simpler to implement and should be faster to use.

    Also, added new error codes to release branch, so bump the minor version
number to indicate that the library is no longer perfectly compatible with
the 1.6.3 release.

Platforms tested:
    FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel
    Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
    Too minor to require further testing (the skip lists aren't actually
    used by any library code yet)
