a6b04c0c66 Extend nccopy -F option syntax.
A user suggested that the nccopy -F option
syntax should be extended to support specification
of multiple (or all) variables in a single -F option.

The new syntax allows:

1. '*' as the name of the variable; this means apply the
   filter to all variables in the data set.
2. *var1|var2|...* as the variable name to indicate that the filter
   should be applied to the multiple specified variables.

b02703aa24 This PR primarily addresses Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/725.
After a long discussion, I implemented the rules at the end of that issue.
They are documented in nccopy.1.

Additionally, I added a new, per-variable, -c flag that allows
for the direct setting of the chunking parameters for a variable.
The form is
    -c var:c1,c2,...ck
where var is the name of the variable (possibly a fully qualified name)
and the ci are the chunksizes for that variable. It must be the case
that the rank of the variable is k. If the new form is used as well
as the old form, then the new form overrides the old form for the
specified variable. Note that multiple occurrences of the new form
-c flag may be specified.

Misc. Other fixes
1. Added -M <size> option to nccopy to specify the minimum
   allowable chunksize.
2. Removed the unused variables from bigmeta.c
   (Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1079)
3. Fixed failure of nc_test4/tst_filter.sh by using the new -M
   flag (#1) to allow filter test on a small chunk size.
