Bug 2182 - h5ls and h5dump: update to use --enable-error-stack among tools, also update related descriptions
Description:
Merged from HDF5 trunk r20378 and r20379
Decided to use --enable-error-stack long option name only to
display error stack messages from HDF5 lib among tools.
Updated to unify option name to '--enable-error-stack' for printing
HDF5 error stack messages for HDF5 tools. h5ls and h5dump for now.
For h5ls, this replaces "-e/--errors" option, which is deprecated.
For h5dump, remove -E from help page and RM , which was added by mistake
before release1.8.7.
Help page and RM got updated.
Updated test case.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), amani (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Revised the online help page of h5dump to explain the packed bits feature and
added an example too.
Tested: h5committest plus jam tested with --disable-h5dump-packedbits.
Install packed-bits feature for h5dump.
Allen has installed the feature in the NPOESS feature branch.
I ported it back to the v1.8 branch for v1.8.5 release.
