fix: refuse at open the dataset storage libhdf5 refuses at open

libhdf5 checks a dataset's storage when it opens the dataset
(H5D__contig_check, H5D__compact_init): the element count times the
element size must not overflow, contiguous storage must end inside the
file, compact data must be the dataset's size. File::dataset opened
cve-2024-32624's /Dset_OBJREF (2^62 + 2 references of 8 bytes) and
reported its shape; only reading failed.

data_read::check_dataset_storage makes those checks (new
FormatError::InvalidDatasetStorage), and File, MmapFile and LazyFile run
it whenever they open a dataset (by path, by address, from a group), as
does the conformance probe. As before, a datatype, dataspace or layout
that does not decode is left for the read to report, so such a dataset
still opens and its attributes still read. An empty contiguous dataset at
a defined address, which libhdf5 refuses, is still accepted: clawhdf5 up
to v2.7.0 wrote them.
