- a new CMake configuration can be used to copy the pre-chosen version
- of the Fortran MOD files into the install include directory.

Library:
--------
+ - Change how the release part of version, in major.minor.release is checked
+ for compatibility
+
+ The HDF5 library uses a function, H5check_version, to check that
+ the version defined in the header files, which is used to compile an
+ application is compatible with the version codified in the library, which
+ the application loads at runtime. This previously required an exact match
+ or the library would print a warning, dump the build settings and then
+ abort or continue. An environment variable controlled the logic.
+
+ Now the function first checks that the library release version, in
+ major.minor.release, is not older than the version in the headers.
+ Secondly, if the release version is different, it checks if either
+ the library version or the header version is in the exception list, in
+ which case the release part of version, in major.minor.release, must
+ be exact. An environment variable still controls the logic.

- Refactored public exposure of haddr_t type in favor of "object tokens"
- To better accommodate HDF5 VOL connectors where "object addresses in a file"
- may not make much sense, the following changes were made to the library:
-
- * Introduced new H5O_token_t "object token" type, which represents a
- unique and permanent identifier for referencing an HDF5 object within
- a container; these "object tokens" are meant to replace object addresses.
- Along with the new type, a new H5Oopen_by_token API call was introduced
- to open an object by a token, similar to how object addresses were
- previously used with H5Oopen_by_addr.
-
- * Introduced new H5Lget_info2, H5Lget_info_by_idx2, H5Literate2, H5Literate_by_name2,
- H5Lvisit2 and H5Lvisit_by_name2 API calls, along with their associated H5L_info2_t
- struct and H5L_iterate2_t callback function, which work with the newly-introduced
- object tokens, instead of object addresses. The original functions have been
- renamed to version 1 functions and are deprecated in favor of the new version 2
- functions. The H5L_info_t and H5L_iterate_t types have been renamed to version 1
- types and are now deprecated in favor of their version 2 counterparts. For each of
- the functions and types, compatibility macros take place of the original symbols.

- struct, which are used to retrieve the native HDF5 file format-specific information

- has been removed from the new H5O_info2_t struct so that the more generic
- H5Oget_info(_by_name/_by_idx)3 routines will not try to retrieve it for non-native
- VOL connectors.

- two object tokens, convert an object token into a nicely-readable string format and
