==== Low-level interface to HDF5 functions ====


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.
