 * Function:    H5Lmove
 *
 * Purpose:     Renames an object within an HDF5 file and moves it to a new
 *              group.  The original name SRC is unlinked from the group graph
 *              and then inserted with the new name DST (which can specify a
 *              new path for the object) as an atomic operation. The names
 *              are interpreted relative to SRC_LOC_ID and DST_LOC_ID,
 *              which are either file IDs or group ID.
 *
 * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
