Bug Fix
Description:
Regression test for following bug:
The H5Gget_objinfo() function was not setting the 'fileno' field in the
H5G_stat_t struct passed in.
Solution:
Added a "file serial number" to each file currently open in the library
and put that in the 'fileno' field. If a file is opened twice (with
H5Fopen) and the VFL driver detects that it is the same file (i.e. the
two file structures have the same "shared file info" in the library's
memory structures), they will have the same serial number.
This serial number has two drawbacks:
- If a VFL driver doesn't/can't detect that two calls to H5Fopen with
the same file actually _are_ the same file, each will get a
different serial number
- If the same file is closed and re-opened, the serial number will be
different.
It is be possible to fix the second drawback for many VFL drivers, but it
would be a lot of effort and probably isn't worth it until we've got a
good reason to do it. Dunno if we'll ever be able to fix the first
drawback...

Bug Fix
Description:
If a non-zero fill-value is used for a chunked dataset, any non-existent
chunked read with an "all" selection (or a contiguous hyperslab selection)
will return zero for those instead of the user's fill-value.
Solution:
Fixed I/O code to pass down fill-value to "optimized" I/O routines, so it
will be available to fill the user's buffer with.

Bug Fix
Description:
When file space was returned to the file space free-list for reuse,
occasionally raw data allocations which used space from the free-list
would overlap with the metadata accumulator and get over-written with
the cached information in the accumulator, corrupting the data.
Solution:
Check if the space about to be recycled on the free-list is going to be
used for raw data and also overlaps with the metadata accumulator cache,
avoiding using space that fits those criteria.
