/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Function:	H5T_path_find
 *
 * Purpose:	Finds the path which converts type SRC_ID to type DST_ID,
 *		creating a new path if necessary.  If FUNC is non-zero then
 *		it is set as the hard conversion function for that path
 *		regardless of whether the path previously existed. Changing
 *		the conversion function of a path causes statistics to be
 *		reset to zero after printing them.  The NAME is used only
 *		when creating a new path and is just for debugging.
 *
 *		If SRC and DST are both null pointers then the special no-op
 *		conversion path is used.  This path is always stored as the
 *		first path in the path table.
 *
 * Return:	Success:	Pointer to the path, valid until the path
 *				database is modified.
 *
 *		Failure:	NULL if the path does not exist and no
 *				function can be found to apply to the new
 *				path.

 *
 * Programmer:	Robb Matzke
 *              Tuesday, December 15, 1998

 * Modifications:
 * 		Robb Matzke, 1999-06-16
 *		The timers are updated only if H5T debugging is enabled at
 *		runtime in addition to compile time.
 *
 *		Robb Matzke, 1999-06-16
 *		Added support for non-zero strides. If STRIDE is non-zero
 *		then convert one value at each memory location advancing
 *		STRIDE bytes each time; otherwise assume both source and
 *		destination values are packed.
 *
 *      Quincey Koziol, 1999-07-01
 *      Added dataset transfer properties, to allow custom VL datatype
 *      allocation function to be passed down to VL conversion routine.
