--------
+ - Implemented optimized support for vector I/O in the Subfiling VFD
+
+ Previously, the Subfiling VFD would handle vector I/O requests by
+ breaking them down into individual I/O requests, one for each entry
+ in the I/O vectors provided. This could result in poor I/O performance
+ for features in HDF5 that utilize vector I/O, such as parallel I/O
+ to filtered datasets. The Subfiling VFD now properly handles vector
+ I/O requests in their entirety, resulting in fewer I/O calls, improved
+ vector I/O performance and improved vector I/O memory efficiency.

- Added a simple cache to the read-only S3 (ros3) VFD
The read-only S3 VFD now caches the first N bytes of a file stored
