[svn-r17977] Bug fix for 1584. H5Tdetect_class said a VL string is a string type. But when it's in a
compound type, it says it's a VL type. We want to tell user a VL string is a string. But internally we treat it as a VL type. I added a flag as a parameter of H5T_detect_class. It tells whether the caller is the public function H5Tdetect_class. I also added a detection for VL string in the private function for the compound case (or array or nested VL type). Tested on jam and amani - I tested the same change for 1.8 with h5committest.
