HDFFV-7514 - GMQS: h5dump - improve effectiveness of testing scripts for handling expected output files
Description:
Fist phase for h5dump test update. Next phase will be for h5ls.
This is prerequisite for 'HDFFV-7602 Tools - upgrade tools' test scripts to share test files among tools, providing framework for test file re-usability.'
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE), Cmake (jam)
