Repair synchronization bug in the metadata cache in PHDF5
Also repair numerous other bugs that surfaced in testing the
bug fix.
Description:
While operations modifying metadata must be collective, we allow
independant reads. This allows metadata caches on different processes
to adjust to different sizes, and to place the entries on their dirty
lists in different orders. Since only process 0 actually writes
metadata to disk (all other processes thought they did, but the writes
were discarded on the theory that they had to be collective), this made
it possible for another process to modify metadata, flush it, and then
read it back in in its original form (pre-modification) form. The
possibilities for file corruption should be obvious.
Solution:
Make the policy that only process 0 can write to file explicit, and
visible to the metadata caches. Thus only process 0 may flush dirty
entries -- all other caches must retain dirty entries until they are
informed by process 0 that the entries are clean.
Synchronization is handled by counting the bytes of dirty cache entries
created, and then synching up between the caches whenever the sum
exceeds an (eventually user specified) limit. Dirty metadata creation
is consistent across all processes because all operations modifying
metadata must be collective.
This change uncovered may bugs which are repaired in this checkin.
It also required modification of H5HL and H5O to allocate file space
on insertion rather than on flush from cache.

Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
If an HDF5 file grows larger than its address space, it dies and is unable to
write any data. This is more likely to happen since users are able to change
the number of bytes used to store addresses in the file.
Solution:
HDF5 now throws an error instead of dying. In addition, it "reserves" address
space for the local heap and for object headers (which do not allocate space
immediately). This ensures that after the error occurs, there is enough address
space left to flush the entire file to disk, so no data is lost.
A more complete explanation is at /doc/html/TechNotes/ReservedFileSpace.html

Update
Description:
A lot of modifications for the FPHDF5 stuff:
H5AC.c
H5ACprivate.h - Removed AC_find (it's replaced with AC_protect
and AC_unprotect). Added flushing if it's an FPHDF5 driver and
we're doing an AC_set or AC_unprotect with the dirty flag set.
H5B.c - Split up the B_flush function into different functions
since the one function was doing serialization which is better
left as a separate entity.
H5D.c - Removed some FPHDF5 code that was incorrect
H5F.c - Split up the F_flush function so that it no longer
allocates file space. Created new functions (F_init_superblock,
F_read_superblock, and F_write_superblock) for greater modularity
and so that the FPHDF5 non-captain processes can read the
superblock after the captain process writes it.
H5FD.c - Error message correction.
H5FDfphdf5.c - Removed MPI barrier call that wasn't needed.
H5FPclient.c
H5FPserver.c - Modified so that if a process requests data that
isn't exactly aligned, we can return it if we have the block that
contains the requested address.
H5G.c
H5Gent.c
H5Gnode.c
H5HL.c
H5HLpkg.h
H5HLprivate.h
H5Oefl.c - Removed the H5HL_peek function since it was doing a
(now unsafe) holding of the information in the cache. Replaced
with protect and unprotect calls.
H5TB.c - Error fix. The TB_dless function wasn't working
properly.
H5Gstab.c - Format change.
H5err.txt
H5Edefin.h
H5Einit.h
H5Epubgen.h
H5Eterm.h - Added new error code.

Code cleanup
Description:
Break some of the "debugging" routines into their own module, so they
aren't pulled into every executable, which certainly isn't going to use them.
