 * Created:		H5G.c
 *			Jul 18 1997
 *			Robb Matzke <matzke@llnl.gov>
 *
 * Purpose:		Symbol table functions.	 The functions that
 *			begin with `H5G_stab_' don't understand the
 *			naming system; they operate on a single
 *			symbol table at a time.
 *
 *			The functions that begin with `H5G_node_' operate
 *			on the leaf nodes of a symbol table B-tree.  They
 *			should be defined in the H5Gnode.c file.
 *
 *			The remaining functions know how to traverse the
 *			group directed graph
 *

 * Function:	H5G_namei
 *
 * Purpose:	Translates a name to a symbol table entry.
 *
 *		If the specified name can be fully resolved, then this
 *		function returns the symbol table entry for the named object
 *		through the OBJ_ENT argument. The symbol table entry for the
 *		group containing the named object is returned through the
 *		GRP_ENT argument if it is non-null.  However, if the name
 *		refers to the root object then the GRP_ENT will be
 *		initialized with an undefined object header address.  The
 *		REST argument, if present, will point to the null terminator
 *		of NAME.
 *
 *		If the specified name cannot be fully resolved, then OBJ_ENT
 *		is initialized with the undefined object header address. The
 *		REST argument will point into the NAME argument to the start
 *		of the component that could not be located.  The GRP_ENT will
 *		contain the entry for the symbol table that was being
 *		searched at the time of the failure and will have an
 *		undefined object header address if the search failed at the
 *		root object. For instance, if NAME is `/foo/bar/baz' and the
 *		root directory exists and contains an entry for `foo', and
 *		foo is a group that contains an entry for baz, but baz is not
 *		a group, then the results will be that REST points to `baz',
 *		GRP_ENT has an undefined object header address, and GRP_ENT
 *		is the symbol table entry for `bar' in `/foo'.
 *
 *		If a file contains more than one object, then `/' is the name
 *		of the root object which is a group.  Otherwise, a file can
 *		consist of a single object, not necessarily a group, whose
 *		name is `/foo' where `foo' is the value of the name messsage
 *		in the object header.  A file can also contain no objects in
 *		which case the function returns so REST points to the
 *		beginning of NAME and OBJ_ENT and GRP_ENT contain undefined
 *		header addresses.
 *
 *		Components of a name are separated from one another by one or
 *		more slashes (/).  Slashes at the end of a name are ignored.
 *		If the name begins with a slash then the search begins at the
 *		root object, otherwise it begins at the group CWG, otherwise
 *		it begins at the current working group of file F. The
 *		component `.' is a no-op, but `..' is not understood by this
 *		function (unless it appears as an entry in the symbol table).
 *		
 * Errors:
 *
 * Return:	Success:	SUCCEED if name can be fully resolved.	See
 *				above for values of REST, GRP_ENT, and
 *				OBJ_ENT.
 *
 *		Failure:	FAIL if the name could not be fully resolved.
 *				See above for values of REST, GRP_ENT, and
