read: look names up through the dense name indexes

Finding one link or attribute by name read every entry: Group::dataset and
Group::group (File, MmapFile, LazyFile) listed the whole group per call, and
path resolution scanned each group's links. Opening every child of a
35 001-link group by name decoded ~1.2e9 links.

Now a dense group's v2 B-tree name index (type 5, lookup3 hash of the
name) is descended to the records with the name's hash
(btree_v2::find_btree_v2_records reads only the nodes whose key interval
overlaps), and only those links are read and compared; all hash-equal
records are compared, so libhdf5's tie order does not matter. Dense
attributes the same through their type 8 index
(attribute::find_attribute_in_file, facade attr(name)); huge heap objects
through their ID-ordered index. group_v2::resolve_child returns what the
listing has under a name (soft links followed, dangling/external ones not
found). Group::entries and File::group_at hand out a listing's addresses.

The lookup-stats feature counts heap objects read. Tests: one lookup in
an h5py-written 35 001-link group with colliding hashes reads at most two
links (before: 35 001, failing), attribute lookups likewise (before: 3 000,
failing), every child opens through all three readers and matches h5py,
every link kind resolves as h5py resolves it in dense and compact groups,
300 huge attributes are found, and a range search matches a full scan at
every tree depth.
