 DESCRIPTION
    Combines a hyperslab selection with the current selection for a dataspace.
    If the current selection is not a hyperslab, it is freed and the hyperslab
    parameters passed in are combined with the H5S_SEL_ALL hyperslab (ie. a
    selection composing the entire current extent).  Currently, only the
    H5S_SELECT_SET operation is supported.  If STRIDE or BLOCK is NULL, they
    are assumed to be set to all '1'.

        const hssize_t **coord; IN: The location of each element selected
 RETURNS
    SUCCEED/FAIL
 DESCRIPTION
    This function selects array elements to be included in the selection for
    the dataspace.  The COORD array is a 2-D array of size <dataspace rank>
    by NUM_ELEM (ie. a list of coordinates in the dataspace).  The order of
    the element coordinates in the COORD array specifies the order that the
    array elements are iterated through when I/O is performed.  Duplicate
    coordinates are not checked for.  The selection operator, OP, determines
    how the new selection is to be combined with the existing selection for
    the dataspace.  Currently, only H5S_SELECT_SET is supported, which replaces
    the existing selection with the one defined in this call.  When operators
    other than H5S_SELECT_SET are used to combine a new selection with an
    existing selection, the selection ordering is reset to 'C' array ordering.
