Create a thin wrapper for the HDF5 library. As much as possible, make it compatible with the [https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/low-level-functions.html Matlab interface to HDF5]. However, we may support newer functions (as of 2020/10/30, the list of Matlab functions appears to correspond to an older version of the library than is presently available in the HDF5 library itself) and support for legacy functions has a low priority. | Create a thin wrapper for the HDF5 library.
