Jonathan Kim e703a6a2a4 [svn-r21236] Purpose:
Work for:
   HDFFV-7515 - GMQS: h5unjam - incorrect help page and should display when 
   no file is given.
   and
   HDFFV-5941 - h5jam: specifying a user block file with a proper HDF5 magic
   number will result in a corrupted HDF5 file.


Description:
   - Revised command help pages of h5jam and h5unjam. The descriptions
     were not up to date and some were missing. (HDFFV-7515)
   - Fixed h5jam not to allow specifying an HDF5 formatted file as input 
     file for -u (user block file) option, because the original HDF5 file 
     will not be accessible if allows. (HDFFV-5941)

Tested:
    jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), heiwa (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Cmake (jam, Wondows)
