 * Function:	H5T_copy
 *
 * Purpose:	Copies datatype OLD_DT.	 The resulting data type is not
 *		locked and is a transient type.
 *
 * Return:	Success:	Pointer to a new copy of the OLD_DT argument.
 *
 *		Failure:	NULL
 *
 * Programmer:	Robb Matzke
 *		Thursday, December  4, 1997
 *
 * Modifications:
 *
 * 	Robb Matzke, 4 Jun 1998
 *	Added the METHOD argument.  If it's H5T_COPY_TRANSIENT then the
 *	result will be an unlocked transient type.  Otherwise if it's
 *	H5T_COPY_ALL then the result is a named type if the original is a
 *	named type, but the result is not opened.  Finally, if it's
 *	H5T_COPY_REOPEN and the original type is a named type then the result
 *	is a named type and the type object header is opened again.  The
 *	H5T_COPY_REOPEN method is used when returning a named type to the
 *	application.
 *
 * 	Robb Matzke, 22 Dec 1998
 *	Now able to copy enumeration data types.
 *
 *      Robb Matzke, 20 May 1999
 *	Now able to copy opaque types.
 *
 *      Pedro Vicente, <pvn@ncsa.uiuc.edu> 21 Sep 2002
 *      Added a deep copy of the symbol table entry

/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Function:	H5T_path_find
 *
 * Purpose:	Finds the path which converts type SRC_ID to type DST_ID,
 *		creating a new path if necessary.  If FUNC is non-zero then
 *		it is set as the hard conversion function for that path
 *		regardless of whether the path previously existed. Changing
 *		the conversion function of a path causes statistics to be
 *		reset to zero after printing them.  The NAME is used only
 *		when creating a new path and is just for debugging.
 *
 *		If SRC and DST are both null pointers then the special no-op
 *		conversion path is used.  This path is always stored as the
 *		first path in the path table.
 *
 * Return:	Success:	Pointer to the path, valid until the path
 *				database is modified.
 *
 *		Failure:	NULL if the path does not exist and no
 *				function can be found to apply to the new
 *				path.
