feat(format): nested groups, soft/hard/external links and creation order in the writer
FileWriter wrote the root group plus one level of groups, and refused
path-like names. The writer now flattens its builders into a group tree
(writer_tree.rs) before layout:
- A name may be a path ("a/b/x", "/a/b/x" at the root); missing
intermediate groups are created as h5py does, and GroupBuilder gains
create_group/add_group so builders nest to any depth. A group added at a
path that already holds a group is merged into it (require_group);
any other repeated name, an empty or "." component, or an absolute path
below the root is an error.
- add_soft_link, add_hard_link and add_external_link on FileWriter,
FileBuilder and GroupBuilder. Hard-link targets are resolved to objects
at finish (through other hard links; a missing target, a soft link on the
way or a cycle of paths is an error). Objects with several hard links get
an Object Reference Count message so libhdf5 can delete one link without
freeing the object.
- track_order(true) per group, or as the file default, tracks and indexes
link creation order: Link Info flags and max order, the order in each
Link message, and a type-6 creation-order B-tree for dense groups.
- A group's link index is one B-tree leaf; more than 65535 links is an
error.
Groups are laid out depth-first from the root, datasets group by group,
and untracked groups keep writing datasets, then groups, then other links:
files with one level of groups are byte-identical to before.
