re: Issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1999
NCclosedir code is incorrect. Fix.
Note that this issue crops up when using a non-VisualStudio windows build
such as Mingw because Mingq defines dirent.h, but Visual Studio does not.
Addendum:
Fix some mingw bugs:
1. Modify XGetopt.h to be conditional on _WIN32 instead of _MSC_VER.
2. Make sure sys/stat.h is included in ncpathmgr.h
The XArray implementation that uses Zarr for storage
provides a mechanism to simulate named dimensions.
It does this by adding a per-variable attribute called
_ARRAY_DIMENSIONS. This attribute contains a list of names
to be matched against the shape values of the variable.
In effect a named dimension is created with the name
_ARRAY_DIMENSIONS(i) and length shape(i) for all i
in range 0..rank(variable).
Both read and write support is provided.
This XArray support is only invoked if the mode value
of "xarray" is defined. So for example, as in this URL.
````
https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/dataset#mode=nczarr,xarray,s3
````
Note that the "xarray" mode flag also implies mode flag "zarr", so the above
is equivalent to this URL.
````
https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/dataset#mode=nczarr,zarr,xarray,s3
````
The primary change to implement this was to unify the handling
of dimension references in libnczarr/zsync.
A test for this and other pure-zarr features was added as
nczarr_test/run_purezarr.sh
Other changes:
* Make sure distcheck leaves no files around.
* Change the special attribute flag DIMSCALEFLAG to HIDDENATTRFLAG
to support the xarray attribute.
* Annotate the zmap implementations with feature flags such as
WRITEONCE (for zip files).

NetCDF has a requirement that the type of a _FillValue attribute
be the same as the containing variable. However, it is clear
that too many servers do not honor this requirement. So, change
the default for DAP2 and DAP4 to allow fill mismatch.
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
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1836
Revert the internal filter code to simplify it. From the user's
point of view, the only visible changes should be:
1. The functions that convert text to filter specs have had their signature reverted and have been moved to netcdf_aux.h
2. Some filter API functions now return NC_ENOFILTER when inquiry is made about some filter.
Internally,the dispatch table has been modified to get rid of the filter_actions
entry and associated complex structures. It has been replaced with
inq_var_filter_ids and inq_var_filter_info entries and the dispatch table
version has been bumped to 3. Corresponding NOOP and NOTNC4 functions
were added to libdispatch/dnotnc4.c. Also, the filter_action entries
in dispatch tables were replaced for all dispatch code bases (HDF5, DAP2,
etc). This should only impact UDF users.
In the process, it became clear that the form of the filters
field in NC_VAR_INFO_T was format dependent, so I converted it to
be of type void* and pushed its management into the various dispatch
code bases. Specifically libhdf5 and libnczarr now manage the filters
field in their own way.
The auxilliary functions for parsing textual filter specifications
were moved to netcdf_aux.h and were renamed to the following:
* ncaux_h5filterspec_parse
* ncaux_h5filterspec_parselist
* ncaux_h5filterspec_free
* ncaux_h5filter_fix8
Misc. Other Changes:
1. Document NUG/filters.md updated to reflect the changes above.
2. All the old data types (structs and enums)
used by filter_actions actions were deleted.
The exception is the NC_H5_Filterspec because it is needed
by ncaux_h5filterspec_parselist.
3. Clientside filters were removed -- another enhancement
for which no-one ever asked.
4. The ability to remove filters was itself removed.
5. Some functionality needed by nczarr was moved from libhdf5
to libsrc4 e.g. nc4_find_default_chunksizes
6. All the filterx code was removed
7. ncfilter.h and nc4filter.c no longer used
Misc. Unrelated Changes:
1. The nczarr_test makefile clean was leaving some directories; so
add clean-local to take care of them.
