New references for Dimension Scale APIs (#1139) ...

* Enable usage of new-style references with dimension scale APIs

* Add API to check if an object ID represents a native connector object

* Modified code to use new function H5DSwith_new_ref to determine if new references should be used with
Dimension Scales. The new function return TRUE if non-native connector is used or if H5_DIMENSION_SCALES_WITH_NEW_REF
varible is define at configure time (--enable-dimension-scales-with-new-ref).

Tested on jelly.

ToDo: generate testing file on BE system and enable the test; add flag to CMake; test netCDF-4 with the new references.

* Adding new test files generated on BE system (hedgehog) created by 32 and 64-bit library.

test_ds chokes on test_ds_le_new_ref.h5  on BE system; test passes for test_ds_be_new_ref-32bit.h5
for the 32-bit library and fails for the 64-bit library, and vice versa. I am checking the files for further
investigation; but current implementation of the new references is not portable between LE and BE systems,
and 32 and 64-bit systems.

* Minor fixes for testing issues

* Update test_ds.c

Enabled broken test; tests pass now.

* Update RELEASE.txt

Documented new option to use new references with the HDF5 dimension scales APIs (H5DS*).

* Update MANIFEST for new 32-bit new-style references test file for H5DS APIs

* Update 'dimension scales w/ new-style refs' feature based on review
