feat: check HDF5 2.x small floats against libhdf5 2.2.0
Fixture written by libhdf5 2.2.0 (built from tag 2.2.0) through ctypes: every bit pattern of FP4 E2M1, FP6 E2M3/E3M2, FP8 E4M3/E5M2 and a bfloat16 LE/BE set, as datasets and attributes, with what H5Dread/H5Aread return into double and float and the conversion exceptions libhdf5 raises. clawhdf5 already decoded every value as libhdf5 does, including an all-ones exponent as inf/NaN in the OCP formats that have none (documented as a deliberate match in known-issues). - data_read: NaNs of non-native float layouts get libhdf5's bits (sign kept, every mantissa bit set) in f64 and f32. - h5rs dump/ls name these types as h5dump/h5ls 2.x do (H5T_FLOAT_F4E2M1, "FP4 E2M1 4-bit float", float4-e2m1 ...), checked against h5dump 2.2.0's output of the fixture. - Python bindings read them as h5py 3.16 does (float32 for bfloat16, float16 for the 1-byte formats, file byte order, same bytes as h5py); writing them in 'r+' is refused.

|---|---|---|---|

| **File format** | Superblock v0–v3, user blocks, v1/v2 object headers | Metadata cache images | Writing files HDF5 1.8 can read |
|
||||
| **Groups and links** | Symbol-table, compact and dense groups (tested to 100 000 links), creation order, soft and hard links; writing external links | | Following external links (explicit error); user-defined links are skipped |
|
||||
| **Datatypes** | Integers and IEEE floats of every width and byte order (incl. `f16`), enums, compounds (every version, incl. HDF5 2.0's v5), arrays, fixed-length strings, opaque, complex (HDF5 2.0 class 11) | Variable-length strings and sequences, object references | Writing variable-length data; decoding region and attribute references; x87 long double and binary128 |

| **Layouts and chunk indexes** | Compact, contiguous and chunked; chunk indexes single chunk, Fixed Array, Extensible Array and v2 B-tree (the writer picks one as libhdf5 does); fill values; resizable datasets; virtual datasets (read limits in known-issues) | Chunk indexes v1 B-tree and implicit (the editor also changes them) | External raw data files (explicit error) |
|
||||
| **Filters** | deflate (pure-Rust zlib-rs), shuffle, Fletcher-32, LZ4 (opt-in), Zstd (C, opt-in); plugins LZF, bitshuffle, bzip2, Blosc 1 | N-Bit, scale-offset, SZIP (C, opt-in); plugins Blosc2 and ZFP | Other filter IDs, unless you register a codec (`filter_registry::register_filter`) |
|
||||
| **Editing in place** | `FileEditor`: overwrite values, grow and shrink chunked datasets (every index), set attributes (compact and dense), in files from h5py or clawhdf5 | | Creating or deleting objects in an existing file; deleting attributes; new chunks in implicit indexes; VL data; filters this build cannot encode (refused before any write) |
