 * Function: H5PTcreate

 * Return: Success: table ID, Failure: FAIL

 * Comments: This function does not handle fill data

 *
 * Modifications:
 *	Mar 1, 2016
 *		This function is added to replace H5PTcreate_fl and it differs
 *		from H5PTcreate_fl only because its last argument is plist_id
 *		instead of compression; this is to allow flexible compression.
