* H5Lexists docs: Removed reference to 1.8.16 since the change is the 1.8.x releases, HDFFV-11289
* H5Oget_info_by_name, name can be any object, not just a group
* Converted README.txt to README.md and updated files referring to README.txt to README.md.
* removed references to README.txt
* updated MANIFEST
* Avoid maintenance headaches: delete the `noerror-` variants of the
compiler flags files, since they essentially duplicate the `error-`
files modulo the replacement of `-Werror=` with `-W` and any changes in
comments. (I verified the duplication with a script.)
For autoconf, reinstate the use of the `demote_errors` shell function to
derive the `noerror-` content from the `error-` content. `demote_errors`
replaces `-Werror=` with `-W` when `WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS` is `no`.
Slightly reorder `configure.ac` so that the setting of
`WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS` takes effect before the `error-` files are sourced.
* Take a stab at updating the CMake files to match the changes I made to
the autoconf files to remove `noerror-` files. I'm not much of a CMake
user so these changes are quite rough.
Looks like the duplication can be reduced with the introduction of a new
macro.
* Delete `noerror-` files from the MANIFEST.
* Reduce duplication in the CMake files: perform the
HDF5_ENABLE_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS test once in the ADD_H5_FLAGS macro.

* Update URL in source file Copyright headers for web copy of COPYING
file - files not in src or test.
