hdf5lib 2.2.0.1

• Fixed silent data corruption: ZFP with NaN/NA/Inf or non-native byte order, Blosc2’s ZFP codecs and truncate-precision pre-filter on non-float data, and Blosc2 with array datatypes or after Fletcher32/scale-offset.
• Fixed silent data corruption in Blosc2 with both delta and truncate-precision: every block of a chunk after the first came back wrong. Chunks already written that way cannot be read back correctly.
• Fixed silent data corruption in lossy ZFP on integers. It now declines unsigned types (values near 0 came back near the type’s maximum), and refuses chunks holding values of magnitude 2^30 or more (2^62 for 64-bit), which overflowed. Reversible ZFP still takes any integer.
• Blosc2 cd_values now follow the reference HDF5-Blosc2 layout, so h5py/hdf5plugin can read and append to hdf5lib’s Blosc2 datasets (including 1-D chunks). The old layout is still accepted.
• Snappy (32003) now writes snappy-cuda’s chunk format and reads both; hdf5lib 2.2.0.0 and earlier can’t read the new chunks.
• The BitRound read shim moved off SZ3’s filter ID (32024) to its own (32032). Read shims no longer override real plugins.
• Blosc and Blosc2 now reuse worker threads across chunks, and join them when HDF5 shuts down.
• New C API: hdf5lib_set_blosc2(), hdf5lib_set_blosc_nthreads(), hdf5lib_get_blosc_nthreads(), Blosc2 codec/pre-filter constants, and declarations for the H5Pset_zfp_*() helpers.
• hdf5lib.h now defines HDF5LIB_VERSION (2020001 for 2.2.0.1), its parts, and HDF5LIB_VERSION_STRING, so packages can test the hdf5lib version with #if.
• All filters fail cleanly on truncated or corrupt chunks.
• Datasets copied from another’s creation property list (e.g. by h5repack) keep their ZFP, Blosc2, and Bitshuffle settings.
• Invalid settings or unsupported chunks now fail at H5Dcreate2(), or are stored unfiltered by optional filters, instead of failing every chunk.
• Fixed oversized-chunk overflows in Snappy and LZF, a ZFP datatype leak, and UBSan issues in the bundled ZFP.
• Fixed a UBSan error in the bundled c-blosc, which called its bitshuffle routine through a mismatched function pointer on every bitshuffled Blosc chunk.
• Compiled code no longer references stderr (R CMD check).
• Documentation corrections and expanded h5py/hdf5plugin interoperability tests.
