 * Chapter:     H5Tools Library
 * Purpose:     Open a file with various VFL drivers.
 * Description:
 *      Loop through the various types of VFL drivers trying to open FNAME.
 *      If the HDF5 library is version 1.2 or less, then we have only the SEC2
 *      driver to try out. If the HDF5 library is greater than version 1.2,
 *      then we have the FAMILY, SPLIT, and MULTI drivers to play with (and
 *      the STREAM driver if H5_HAVE_STREAM is defined, that is).
 *
 *      If DRIVER is non-NULL, then it will try to open the file with that
 *      driver first. We assume that the user knows what they are doing so, if
 *      we fail, then we won't try other file drivers.
 * Return:
 *      On success, returns a file id for the opened file. If DRIVERNAME is
 *      non-null then the first DRIVERNAME_SIZE-1 characters of the driver
 *      name are copied into the DRIVERNAME array and null terminated.
 *
 *      Otherwise, the function returns FAIL. If DRIVERNAME is non-null then
 *      the first byte is set to the null terminator.
 * Programmer:
 *      Lost in the mists of time.
 * Modifications:
 *      Robb Matzke, 2000-06-23
 *      We only have to initialize driver[] on the first call, thereby
 *      preventing memory leaks from repeated calls to H5Pcreate().
 *
 *      Robb Matzke, 2000-06-23
 *      Added DRIVERNAME_SIZE arg to prevent overflows when writing to
 *      DRIVERNAME.
 *
 *      Robb Matzke, 2000-06-23
 *      Added test to prevent coredump when the file could not be opened by
 *      any driver.
 *
 *      Robb Matzke, 2000-06-23
 *      Changed name from H5ToolsFopen() so it jives better with the names we
 *      already have at the top of this source file.
 *
 *      Thomas Radke, 2000-09-12
 *      Added Stream VFD to the driver[] array.
 *
 *      Bill Wendling, 2001-01-10
 *      Changed macro behavior so that if we have a version other than 1.2.x
 *      (i.e., > 1.2), then we do the drivers check.
 *
 *      Bill Wendling, 2001-07-30
 *      Added DRIVER parameter so that the user can specify "try this driver"
 *      instead of the default behaviour. If it fails to open the file with
 *      that driver, this will fail completely (i.e., we won't try the other
 *      drivers). We're assuming the user knows what they're doing. How UNIX
 *      of us.
