126b3f9423 Support installation of filters into user-specified location
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2294

Ed Hartnett suggested that the netcdf library installation process
be extended to install the standard filters into a user specified
location. The user can then set HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH to that location.

This PR provides that capability using:
````
configure option: --with-plugin-dir=<absolute directory path>
cmake option: -DPLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR=<absolute directory path>
````

Currently, the following plugins are always installed, if
available: bzip2, zstd, blosc.
If NCZarr is enabled, then additional plugins are installed:
fletcher32, shuffle, deflate, szip.

Additionally, the necessary codec support is installed
for each of the above filters that is installed.

## Changes:
1. Cleanup handling of built-in bzip2.
2. Add documentation to docs/filters.md
3. Re-factor the NCZarr codec libraries
4. Add a test, although it can only be exercised after
   the library is installed, so it cannot be used during
   normal testing.
5. Cleanup use of HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH in the filter test cases.
