Provide get/set functions to store global data alignment
information and apply it when a file is created.
The api is as follows:
````
int nc_set_alignment(int threshold, int alignment);
int nc_get_alignment(int* thresholdp, int* alignmentp);
````
If defined, then for every file created opened after the call to
nc_set_alignment, for every new variable added to the file, the
most recently set threshold and alignment values will be applied
to that variable.
The nc_get_alignment function return the last values set by
nc_set_alignment. If nc_set_alignment has not been called, then
it returns the value 0 for both threshold and alignment.
The alignment parameters are stored in the NCglobalstate object
(see below) for use as needed. Repeated calls to nc_set_alignment
will overwrite any existing values in NCglobalstate.
The alignment parameters are applied in libhdf5/hdf5create.c
and libhdf5/hdf5open.c
The set/get alignment functions are defined in libsrc4/nc4internal.c.
A test program was added as nc_test4/tst_alignment.c.
## Misc. Changes Unrelated to Alignment
* The NCRCglobalstate type was renamed to NCglobalstate to
indicate that it represented more general global state than
just .rc data. It was also moved to nc4internal.h. This led
to a large number of small changes: mostly renaming. The
global state management functions were moved to nc4internal.c.
* The global chunk cache variables have been moved into
NCglobalstate. As warranted, other global state will be moved
as well.
* Some misc. problems with the nczarr performance tests were corrected.

re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2143
For a long time, there have been known problems with the
management of complex types containing VLENs. This also
involves the string type because it is stored as a VLEN of
chars.
This PR (mostly) fixes this problem. But note that it adds new
functions to netcdf.h (see below) and this may require bumping
the .so number. These new functions can be removed, if desired,
in favor of functions in netcdf_aux.h, but netcdf.h seems the
better place for them because they are intended as alternatives
to the nc_free_vlen and nc_free_string functions already in
netcdf.h.
The term complex type refers to any type that directly or
transitively references a VLEN type. So an array of VLENS, a
compound with a VLEN field, and so on.
In order to properly handle instances of these complex types, it
is necessary to have function that can recursively walk
instances of such types to perform various actions on them. The
term "deep" is also used to mean recursive.
At the moment, the two operations needed by the netcdf library are:
* free'ing an instance of the complex type
* copying an instance of the complex type.
The current library does only shallow free and shallow copy of
complex types. This means that only the top level is properly
free'd or copied, but deep internal blocks in the instance are
not touched.
Note that the term "vector" will be used to mean a contiguous (in
memory) sequence of instances of some type. Given an array with,
say, dimensions 2 X 3 X 4, this will be stored in memory as a
vector of length 2*3*4=24 instances.
The use cases are primarily these.
## nc_get_vars
Suppose one is reading a vector of instances using nc_get_vars
(or nc_get_vara or nc_get_var, etc.). These functions will
return the vector in the top-level memory provided. All
interior blocks (form nested VLEN or strings) will have been
dynamically allocated.
After using this vector of instances, it is necessary to free
(aka reclaim) the dynamically allocated memory, otherwise a
memory leak occurs. So, the recursive reclaim function is used
to walk the returned instance vector and do a deep reclaim of
the data.
Currently functions are defined in netcdf.h that are supposed to
handle this: nc_free_vlen(), nc_free_vlens(), and
nc_free_string(). Unfortunately, these functions only do a
shallow free, so deeply nested instances are not properly
handled by them.
Note that internally, the provided data is immediately written so
there is no need to copy it. But the caller may need to reclaim the
data it passed into the function.
## nc_put_att
Suppose one is writing a vector of instances as the data of an attribute
using, say, nc_put_att.
Internally, the incoming attribute data must be copied and stored
so that changes/reclamation of the input data will not affect
the attribute.
Again, the code inside the netcdf library does only shallow copying
rather than deep copy. As a result, one sees effects such as described
in Github Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2143.
Also, after defining the attribute, it may be necessary for the user
to free the data that was provided as input to nc_put_att().
## nc_get_att
Suppose one is reading a vector of instances as the data of an attribute
using, say, nc_get_att.
Internally, the existing attribute data must be copied and returned
to the caller, and the caller is responsible for reclaiming
the returned data.
Again, the code inside the netcdf library does only shallow copying
rather than deep copy. So this can lead to memory leaks and errors
because the deep data is shared between the library and the user.
# Solution
The solution is to build properly recursive reclaim and copy
functions and use those as needed.
These recursive functions are defined in libdispatch/dinstance.c
and their signatures are defined in include/netcdf.h.
For back compatibility, corresponding "ncaux_XXX" functions
are defined in include/netcdf_aux.h.
````
int nc_reclaim_data(int ncid, nc_type xtypeid, void* memory, size_t count);
int nc_reclaim_data_all(int ncid, nc_type xtypeid, void* memory, size_t count);
int nc_copy_data(int ncid, nc_type xtypeid, const void* memory, size_t count, void* copy);
int nc_copy_data_all(int ncid, nc_type xtypeid, const void* memory, size_t count, void** copyp);
````
There are two variants. The first two, nc_reclaim_data() and
nc_copy_data(), assume the top-level vector is managed by the
caller. For reclaim, this is so the user can use, for example, a
statically allocated vector. For copy, it assumes the user
provides the space into which the copy is stored.
The second two, nc_reclaim_data_all() and
nc_copy_data_all(), allows the functions to manage the
top-level. So for nc_reclaim_data_all, the top level is
assumed to be dynamically allocated and will be free'd by
nc_reclaim_data_all(). The nc_copy_data_all() function
will allocate the top level and return a pointer to it to the
user. The user can later pass that pointer to
nc_reclaim_data_all() to reclaim the instance(s).
# Internal Changes
The netcdf-c library internals are changed to use the proper
reclaim and copy functions. It turns out that the places where
these functions are needed is quite pervasive in the netcdf-c
library code. Using these functions also allows some
simplification of the code since the stdata and vldata fields of
NC_ATT_INFO are no longer needed. Currently this is commented
out using the SEPDATA \#define macro. When any bugs are largely
fixed, all this code will be removed.
# Known Bugs
1. There is still one known failure that has not been solved.
All the failures revolve around some variant of this .cdl file.
The proximate cause of failure is the use of a VLEN FillValue.
````
netcdf x {
types:
float(*) row_of_floats ;
dimensions:
m = 5 ;
variables:
row_of_floats ragged_array(m) ;
row_of_floats ragged_array:_FillValue = {-999} ;
data:
ragged_array = {10, 11, 12, 13, 14}, {20, 21, 22, 23}, {30, 31, 32},
{40, 41}, _ ;
}
````
When a solution is found, I will either add it to this PR or post a new PR.

re:
The current netcdf-c release has some problems with the mingw platform
on windows. Mostly they are path issues.
Changes to support mingw+msys2:
-------------------------------
* Enable option of looking into the windows registry to find
the mingw root path. In aid of proper path handling.
* Add mingw+msys as a specific platform in configure.ac and move testing
of the platform to the front so it is available early.
* Handle mingw X libncpoco (dynamic loader) properly even though
mingw does not yet support it.
* Handle mingw X plugins properly even though mingw does not yet support it.
* Alias pwd='pwd -W' to better handle paths in shell scripts.
* Plus a number of other minor compile irritations.
* Disallow the use of multiple nc_open's on the same file for windows
(and mingw) because windows does not seem to handle these properly.
Not sure why we did not catch this earlier.
* Add mountpoint info to dpathmgr.c to help support mingw.
* Cleanup dpathmgr conversions.
Known problems:
---------------
* I have not been able to get shared libraries to work, so
plugins/filters must be disabled.
* There is some kind of problem with libcurl that I have not solved,
so all uses of libcurl (currently DAP+Byterange) must be disabled.
Misc. other fixes:
------------------
* Cleanup the relationship between ENABLE_PLUGINS and various other flags
in CMakeLists.txt and configure.ac.
* Re-arrange the TESTDIRS order in Makefile.am.
* Add pseudo-breakpoint to nclog.[ch] for debugging.
* Improve the documentation of the path manager code in ncpathmgr.h
* Add better support for relative paths in dpathmgr.c
* Default the mode args to NCfopen to include "b" (binary) for windows.
* Add optional debugging output in various places.
* Make sure that everything builds with plugins disabled.
* Fix numerous (s)printf inconsistencies betweenb the format spec
and the arguments.
## S3 Related Fixes
* Add comprehensive support for specifying AWS profiles to provide access credentials.
* Parse the files "~/.aws/config" and "~/.aws/credentials to provide credentials for the HDF5 ROS3 driver and to locate default region.

* Modify the struct NCauth (in include/ncauth.h) to replace specific S3 credentials with a profile name.
* Add a unit test to test the operation of profile and credentials management.
* Add support for URLS of the form "s3://<bucket>/<key>"; this requires obtaining a default region.
* Allows the specification of profile and/or region in a URL of the form "#mode=nczarr,...&aws.region=...&aws.profile=..."
## Misc. Fixes
* Move the ezxml code to libdispatch so that it can be used both by DAP4 and nczarr.
* Modify nclist to provide a deep clone operation.
* Modify ncuri to provide a deep clone operation.
* Modify the .rc file format to allow the specification of a path to be tested when looking for an entry in the .rc file.

Filter support has three goals:
1. Use the existing HDF5 filter implementations,
2. Allow filter metadata to be stored in the NumCodecs metadata format used by Zarr,
3. Allow filters to be used even when HDF5 is disabled
Detailed usage directions are define in docs/filters.md.
For now, the existing filter API is left in place. So filters
are defined using ''nc_def_var_filter'' using the HDF5 style
where the id and parameters are unsigned integers.
This is a big change since filters affect many parts of the code.
In the following, the terms "compressor" and "filter" and "codec" are generally
used synonomously.
### Filter-Related Changes:
* In order to support dynamic loading of shared filter libraries, a new library was added in the libncpoco directory; it helps to isolate dynamic loading across multiple platforms.
* Provide a json parsing library for use by plugins; this is created by merging libdispatch/ncjson.c with include/ncjson.h.
* Add a new _Codecs attribute to allow clients to see what codecs are being used; let ncdump -s print it out.
* Provide special headers to help support compilation of HDF5 filters when HDF5 is not enabled: netcdf_filter_hdf5_build.h and netcdf_filter_build.h.
* Add a number of new test to test the new nczarr filters.
* Let ncgen parse _Codecs attribute, although it is ignored.
### Plugin directory changes:
* Add support for the Blosc compressor; this is essential because it is the most common compressor used in Zarr datasets. This also necessitated adding a CMake FindBlosc.cmake file
* Add NCZarr support for the big-four filters provided by HDF5: shuffle, fletcher32, deflate (zlib), and szip
* Add a Codec defaulter (see docs/filters.md) for the big four filters.
* Make plugins work with windows by properly adding __declspec declaration.
### Misc. Non-Filter Changes
* Replace most uses of USE_NETCDF4 (deprecated) with USE_HDF5.
* Improve support for caching
* More fixes for path conversion code
* Fix misc. memory leaks
* Add new utility -- ncdump/ncpathcvt -- that does more or less the same thing as cygpath.
* Add a number of new test to test the non-filter fixes.
* Update the parsers
* Convert most instances of '#ifdef _MSC_VER' to '#ifdef _WIN32'
The thredds-test server now has some password protected datasets

This PR replaces old testcases with ncdap_test/testauth.sh.
This testcase allows us to test use of the .dodsrc file and .netrc file
and embedded user+pwd.
As part of this, I had to create a program (ncdap_test/pathcvt.c)
that is essentially the equivalent to cygpath. Given a path in
windows, unix, msys or cygwin format, it converts it to the
equivalent format in one of those four cases. So it can be used
to convert a cygwin path to a windows path, for example. This is
needed in testpathcvt and testauth to make sure that the paths
in .daprc (e.g. the reference to .netrc) are of the proper
format.
Misc. Other Changes:
1. Fix some memory leaks in libdap2
2. Setting the env variable CURLOPT_VERBOSE allows tracking of curl
operations.
3. Make tst_charvlenbug be conditional on NC_VLEN_NOTEST.
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1827
The issue is partly resolved by this PR. The proximate problem appears to be that the semantics of mkstemp in **nix is different than the semantics of _mktemp_s in Windows. I had thought they were the same but that is incorrect. The _mktemp_s function will only produce 26 different files and so the netcdf temp file code will fail after about that many iterations.
So, to solve this, I created my own version of mkstemp for windows that uses a random number generator. This appears to solve the reported issue. I also added the testcase ncdap_test/test_manyurls but made it conditional on --enable-dap-long-tests because it is very slow.
I did note that the provided test program now fails after some 800 iterations with a libcurl error claiming it cannot resolve the host name. My belief is that the library is just running out of resources at this point: too many open curl handles or some such. I doubt if this failure is fixable.
So bottom line is that it is really important to do nc_close when you are finished with a file.
Misc. Other Changes:
1. I took the opportunity to clean up some bad string hacks in the code. Specifically
* change all uses of strncat to strlcat
* remove old string hacks: occoncat and occopycat
2. Add heck to see if test.opendap.org is running and if not, then skip test
3. Make CYGWIN use TEMP environment variable
Primary changes:
* Add an improved cache system to speed up performance.
* Fix NCZarr to properly handle scalar variables.
Misc. Related Changes:
* Added unit tests for extendible hash and for the generic cache.
* Add config parameter to set size of the NCZarr cache.
* Add initial performance tests but leave them unused.
* Add CRC64 support.
* Move location of ncdumpchunks utility from /ncgen to /ncdump.
* Refactor auth support.
Misc. Unrelated Changes:
* More cleanup of the S3 support
* Add support for S3 authentication in .rc files: HTTP.S3.ACCESSID and HTTP.S3.SECRETKEY.
* Remove the hashkey from the struct OBJHDR since it is never used.
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1876
and: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1835
and: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/1041
The change in PR 1835 was correct with respect to using %20 instead of '+'
for encoding blanks. However, it was a mistake to assume everything was
unencoded and then to do encoding ourselves. The problem is that
different servers do different things, with Columbia being an outlier.
So, I have added a set of client controls that can at least give
the caller some control over this. The caller can append
the following fragment to his URL to control what gets encoded before
sending it to the server. The syntax is as follows:
````
https://<host>/<path>/<query>#encode=path|query|all|none
````
The possible values:
* path -- URL encode (i.e. %xx encode) as needed in the path part of the URL.
* query -- URL encode as needed in the query part of the URL.
* all -- equivalent to ````#encode=path,query````.
* none -- do not url encode any part of the URL sent to the server; not strictly necessary, so mostly for completeness.
Note that if "encode=" is used, then before it is processed, all encoding
is turned of so that ````#encode=path```` will only encode the path
and not the query.
The default is ````#encode=query````, so the path is left untouched,
but the query is always encoded.
Internally, this required changes to pass the encode flags down into
the OC2 library.
Misc. Unrelated Changes:
* Shut up those irritating warning from putget.m4
cloud using a variant of the Zarr protocol and storage
format. This enhancement is generically referred to as "NCZarr".
The data model supported by NCZarr is netcdf-4 minus the user-defined
types and the String type. In this sense it is similar to the CDF-5
data model.
More detailed information about enabling and using NCZarr is
described in the document NUG/nczarr.md and in a
[Unidata Developer's blog entry](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/developer/en/entry/overview-of-zarr-support-in).
WARNING: this code has had limited testing, so do use this version
for production work. Also, performance improvements are ongoing.
Note especially the following platform matrix of successful tests:
Platform | Build System | S3 support
------------------------------------
Linux+gcc | Automake | yes
Linux+gcc | CMake | yes
Visual Studio | CMake | no
Additionally, and as a consequence of the addition of NCZarr,
major changes have been made to the Filter API. NOTE: NCZarr
does not yet support filters, but these changes are enablers for
that support in the future. Note that it is possible
(probable?) that there will be some accidental reversions if the
changes here did not correctly mimic the existing filter testing.
In any case, previously filter ids and parameters were of type
unsigned int. In order to support the more general zarr filter
model, this was all converted to char*. The old HDF5-specific,
unsigned int operations are still supported but they are
wrappers around the new, char* based nc_filterx_XXX functions.
This entailed at least the following changes:
1. Added the files libdispatch/dfilterx.c and include/ncfilter.h
2. Some filterx utilities have been moved to libdispatch/daux.c
3. A new entry, "filter_actions" was added to the NCDispatch table
and the version bumped.
4. An overly complex set of structs was created to support funnelling
all of the filterx operations thru a single dispatch
"filter_actions" entry.
5. Move common code to from libhdf5 to libsrc4 so that it is accessible
to nczarr.
Changes directly related to Zarr:
1. Modified CMakeList.txt and configure.ac to support both C and C++
-- this is in support of S3 support via the awd-sdk libraries.
2. Define a size64_t type to support nczarr.
3. More reworking of libdispatch/dinfermodel.c to
support zarr and to regularize the structure of the fragments
section of a URL.
Changes not directly related to Zarr:
1. Make client-side filter registration be conditional, with default off.
2. Hack include/nc4internal.h to make some flags added by Ed be unique:
e.g. NC_CREAT, NC_INDEF, etc.
3. cleanup include/nchttp.h and libdispatch/dhttp.c.
4. Misc. changes to support compiling under Visual Studio including:
* Better testing under windows for dirent.h and opendir and closedir.
5. Misc. changes to the oc2 code to support various libcurl CURLOPT flags
and to centralize error reporting.
6. By default, suppress the vlen tests that have unfixed memory leaks; add option to enable them.
7. Make part of the nc_test/test_byterange.sh test be contingent on remotetest.unidata.ucar.edu being accessible.
Changes Left TO-DO:
1. fix provenance code, it is too HDF5 specific.
re: Partly addresses issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1712.
1. Turn on Hyrax Hack to accept Hyrax style attribute containers.
2. Support Url type as alias for String.
3. Accept the special attribute, "__DAP4_Checksum_CRC32",
to control per-variable checksums.
4. Make _DAP4_xxx attributes be reserved and only accessible
by name (ala _SuperBlock attribute).
5. Fix handling of checksums. There is a hack in the code
that uses an extra flag in the chunk header to indicate
that all variables have checksums. This violates the spec
and will be removed once it is possible to regenerate the
test cases.
Note that checksumming with the Hyrax test server has not
been tested. This, along with some other probable inconsistencies,
needs fixing when OPeNDAP and Unidata can agree on the proper
specification. Testing will be included.

The general problem is that under Visual Studio, we are seeing
a number of undefined reference and other scoping errors.
The reason is that the code is not properly using Visual Studio
_declspec() declarations.
The basic solution is to ensure that when compiling the code itself
one needs to ensure that _declspec(dllexport) is used. There
are several sets of macros to handle this, but they all rely
on the flag DLL_EXPORT being define when the code is compiled,
but not being defined when the code is used via a .h file.
As a test, I modified XGetOpt.c to build properly. I also
fixed the oc2 library to properly _declspec things like ocdebug.
I also made some misc. changes to get all the tests to run
if cygwin is installed (to get bash, sed, etc).
Misc. Changes:
* Put XGetOpt.c into libsrc and copy at build time
to the other directories where it is needed.
The current ncgen does not properly handle very large
data sections. Apparently this is very uncommon because
it was only discovered in testing the new zarr code.
The fix required a new approach to processing data sections.
Unfortunately, the resulting ncgen is slower than before
but at least it is, I think, now correct.
The added test cases are in libnczarr, and so will
not show up until that is incorporated into master.
Note also that fortran code generation changed, but
has not been tested here.
Misc. Changes
1. Cleanup error handling in ncgen -lc and -lb output
2. Cleanup Makefiles for ncgen to remove unused code
3. Added a program, ncgen/ncdumpchunks, to print
the data for a .nc file on a per-chunk format.
4. Made the XGetOpt change in PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1694
for ncdump/ncvalidator
re: Github issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1713
If nc_def_var_filter or nc_def_var_deflate or nc_def_var_szip is
called multiple times with the same filter id, but possibly with
different sets of parameters, then the first invocation is
sticky and later invocations are ignored. The desired behavior
is to have the last invocation be used.
This PR implements that desired behavior, with some special
cases. If you call nc_def_var_deflate multiple times, then the
last invocation rule applies with respect to deflate. However,
the shuffle filter, if enabled, is always applied just before
applying deflate.
Misc unrelated changes:
1. Make client-side filters be disabled by default
2. Fix the definition of uintptr_t and use in oc2 and libdap4
3. Add some test cases
4. modify filter order tests to use plugin filters rather
than client-side filters
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1684
re: e-support VZL-904142
Two issues:
1. As of libcurl 7.66, the semantics of CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST
changed so that the non-zero values affects certificate processing.
2. The current library was forcing the values of VERIFYPEER
and VERIFYHOST to zero instead of leaving them to the default values.
Solution was first to leave the defaults in place for VERIFYPEER and VERIFYHOST
as long as they are not set in .ocrc/.dodsrc file.
Second, the value of HTTP.SSL.VERIFYPEER or HTTP.SSL.VERIFYHOST
as set in .ocrc/.dodrc is used to set the corresponding CURLOPT flags.
So for example, adding
> HTTP.SSL.VERIFYHOST=2
will set the value of CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST to 2, the default.
Using
> HTTP.SSL.VERIFYHOST=0
will set the value of CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST to 0, which disables it.
Similarly for VERIFYPEER.
Finally the semantics of HTTP.SSL.VALIDATE is now equivalent to
> HTTP.SSL.VERIFYPEER=1
> HTTP.SSL.VERIFYHOST=2
I see that there is no way to set CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,
but there is support for CURLOPT_TIMEOUT.
So, accept the line 'HTTP.CONNECTTIMEOUT'
in .rc file to allow user to set CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT.
* For URL paths, the new approach essentially centralizes all information
in the URL into the "#mode=" fragment key and uses that value
to determine the dispatcher for (most) URLs.
* The new approach has the following steps:
1. canonicalize the path if it is a URL.
2. use the mode= fragment key to determine the dispatcher
3. if dispatcher still not determined, then use the mode flags
argument to nc_open/nc_create to determine the dispatcher.
4. if the path points to something readable, attempt to read the
magic number at the front, and use that to determine the dispatcher.
this case may override all previous cases.
* Misc changes.
1. Update documentation
2. Moved some unit tests from libdispatch to unit_test directory.
3. Fixed use of wrong #ifdef macro in test_filter_reg.c
[I think this may fix an previously reported esupport query].
re: github issue #1425
The 'ncdump -v' command causes a constraint to be sent
to the opendap code (in libdap2). This is a separate path
from specifying the constraint via a URL.
This separate path encoded its constraint using code independent
of and duplicative of that provided by ncuri.c and this duplicate
code did not properly encode the constraint, which might include
square brackets.
Solution chosen here was to get rid of the duplicate code and
ensure that all URL escaping is performed in the ncuribuild function
in the ncuri.c file.
Also removed the use of the NEWESCAPE conditional in ncuri.c
because it is no longer needed.

* Mark some global constants be const to indicate to make them easier to track.
* Hide direct access to the ncrc_globalstate behind a function call.
* Convert dispatch tables to constants (except the user defined ones)
This has some consequences in terms of function arguments needing to be marked

re: issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1316
The DAP2 data model does not have a signed byte type,
but netcdf-3 does have (only) a signed byte type.
So, when converting a netcdf-3 signed byte typed variable to
a DAP2 unsigned byte, the following actions are taken by thredds:
1. The variable type is marked as DAP2 (unsigned) byte.
2. A special attribute, "_Unsigned=false" is set for the variable
3. The corresponding "_FillValue" attribute, if any, is up-converted
to the DAP2 Int16 type in order to hold, with sign, any signed byte
fill value.
On the netcdf-c side, this looks like a fillvalue type mismatch and causes
an error. Instead, the netcdf-c dap2 conversion code needs to recognize
this hack and undo it locally.
So this change looks for the above case, and if found, then it properly
converts the _FillValue type to netcdf-3 signed byte.
Since DAP2 supports both signed and unsigned integers of sizes 16 and 32 bits,
this should be the only hack needed (famous last words).
It may later be desirable for the thredds DAP2 converter to modify its
behavior as well.

* Major change to the handling of 8-byte parameters for nc_def_var_filter.
The old code was not well thought out.
* The new algorithm is documented in docs/filters.md.
* Added new utility file plugins/H5Zutil.c to support
* Modified plugins/H5Zmisc.c to use new algorithm
the new algorithm.
* Renamed include/ncfilter.h to include/netcdf_filter.h
and made it an installed header so clients can access the
new algorithm utility.
* Fixed nc_test4/tst_filterparser.c and nc_test4/test_filter_misc.c
to use the new algorithm
* libdap4/ fixes:
* d4swap.c has an error in the endian pre-processing such
that record counts were not being swapped correctly.
* d4data.c had an error in that checksums were being computed
after endian swapping rather than before.
* ocinitialize() was never being called, so xxdr bigendian handling
was never set correctly.
* Required adding debug statements to occompile
* Found and fixed memory leak in ncdump.c
Not tested:
* HDF4
* Pnetcdf
* parallel HDF5
Primary fixes to get -ansi to work.
1. Convert all '//' C++ style comments to /*...*/ or to use #if 0...#endif
2. It turns out that when -ansi is specified, then a number of
functions no longer are defined in the header -- but they are still
in the .so file.<br>
The big example is strdup(). So, added code to include/ncconfig.h to define
externs for those missing functions that occur in more than one place.
These are enabled if !_WIN32 && __STDC__ == 1 (__STDC__ is supposed to
be the equivalent compile time flag to -ansi). Note that this requires
config.h (which references ncconfig.h) to be included in files where it is
currently not included. Single uses will be only in the file that uses them.
3. Added mmap test for the MAP_ANONYMOUS flag to configure.ac. Apparently
this is not always defined with -ansi.
4. fix some large integer constants in nc_test4/tst_atts3.c and nc_test4/tst_filterparser.c
to avoid compiler complaints.
5. fix a double constant in nc_test4/tst_filterparser.c to avoid compiler complaints.
[Note I suspect #4 and #5 will be a problem on big-endian machines, but we have no way to test]
Misc. Changes:
1. convert more instances of _MSC_VER to _WIN32.
2. added some debugging code to include/nctestserver.h
3. added comment about libdispatch/drc.c always being compiled.
4. modify parser generation in ncgen to remove unneeded files.

This PR partially fixes memory leaks in the netcdf-c library,
in the ncdump utility, and in some test cases.
The netcdf-c library now runs memory clean with the assumption
that the --disable-utilities option is used. The primary remaining
problem is ncgen. Once that is fixed, I believe the netcdf-c library
will run memory clean with no limitations.
Notes
-----------
1. Memory checking was performed using gcc -fsanitize=address.
Valgrind-based testing has yet to be performed.
2. The pnetcdf, hdf4, and examples code has not been tested.
Misc. Non-leak changes
1. Make tst_diskless2 only run when netcdf4 is enabled (issue 1162)
2. Fix CmakeLists.txt to turn off logging if ENABLE_NETCDF_4 is OFF
3. Isolated all my debug scripts into a single top-level directory
called debug
4. Fix some USE_NETCDF4 dependencies in nc_test and nc_test4 Makefile.am
re: issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1151
Modify DAP2 and DAP4 code to handle case when _FillValue type is not
same as the parent variable type.
Specifically:
1. Define a parameter [fillmismatch] to allow this mismatch;
default is to disallow.
2. If allowed, forcibly change the type of the _FillValue to match
the parent variable.
3. If allowed Convert the values to match new type
4. Generate a log message
5. if not allowed, then fail
Implementing this required some changes to ncdap_test/dapcvt.c
Also added test cases.
Minor Unrelated Changes:
1. There were a number of warnings about e.g.
assigning a const char* to a char*. Fix these
2. In nccopy.1, replace .NP with .IP "n"
(re PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1144)
3. fix minor error in ncdump/ocprint
re: github issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1111
One of the less common use cases for the in-memory feature is
apparently failing with HDF5-1.10.x. The fix is complicated and
requires significant changes to libhdf5/nc4memcb.c. The current
setup is detailed in the file docs/inmeminternal.dox.
Additionally, it was discovered that the program
nc_test/tst_inmemory.c, which is invoked by
nc_test/run_inmemory.sh, actually was failing because of the
above problem. But the failure is not detected since the script
does not return non-zero value.
Other Changes:
1. Fix nc_test_tst_inmemory to return errors correctly.
2. Make ncdap_tests/findtestserver.c and dap4_tests/findtestserver4.c
be generated from ncdap_test/findtestserver.c.in.
3. Make LOG() print output to stderr instead of stdout to
avoid contaminating e.g. ncdump output.
4. Modify the handling of NC_INMEMORY and NC_DISKLESS flags
to properly handle that NC_DISKLESS => NC_INMEMORY. This
affects a number of code pieces, especially memio.c.
Add the ability to set some additional curlopt values via .daprc (aka .dodsrc).
This effects both DAP2 and DAP4 protocols.

1. CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE: Relevant to [1]. Allow user to set the read/write
buffersizes used by curl.
This is done by adding the following to .daprc (aka .dodsrc):
HTTP.READ.BUFFERSIZE=n
where n is the buffersize in bytes. There is a built-in (to curl)
limit of 512k for this value.
2. CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE (and CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE and CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL):
Relevant (maybe) to [2] and [3]. Allow the user to turn on KEEPALIVE
This is done by adding the following to .daprc (aka .dodsrc):
HTTP.KEEPALIVE=on|n/m
If the value is "on", then simply enable default KEEPALIVE. If the value
is n/m, then enable KEEPALIVE and set KEEPIDLE to n and KEEPINTVL to m.
