[svn-r12736] Description:

    Add "use the latest format" support for dataspace object header encode/
decode routines and clean up format a bit for the latest format (new to 1.8.x
releases)

    Remove storing 'perm' parameter for array datatypes in memory and the file,
and add test to make certain that if any user applications are attempting to
store them, we get some reports back.  (Should be unlikely, since the RefMan
says that the parameter is not implemented and is unsupported).
    Carry those changes into the tests, etc.

    Clean up a bunch more compiler warnings.

Tested on:
    FreeBSD/32 4.11 (sleipnir) w/threadsafe
    Linux/32 2.4 (heping) w/FORTRAN & C++
    Linux/64 2.4 (mir) w/enable-1.6-compat
