[svn-r19401] Purpose:
Fix for Bug1975 h5diff - support recursive comparison on group when specified as an object
Description:
Merged from hdf5 trunk (r19400).
Compare member objects and groups recursively when two files or groups are specified to be compared. Support parallel diff and handling symbolic links accordingly.
Tested:
jam, amani
