Extracting RELEASE and HISTORY from Changes.html and distributing
them as separate files will not only leave Changes.html easier to

inserting links instead.
Changes.html now points to RELEASE.txt and HISTORY.txt, duplicates
of hdf5/RELEASE and hdf5/HISTORY. These two files will
henceforth be distributed within the doc set so that this
information can be available to applications developers who
cannot access the HDF website (e.g., due to a firewall) and
are working without the HDF5 source code.
