open(bytes) -> H5File with kind/list/info/attrs/attrErrors/read/
readHyperslab. Numeric data comes back in the typed array of the
stored width (Int16Array for i16, BigInt64Array for i64, Float32Array
for f32/f16, ...), strings and enum names as string arrays, array
datatypes flattened with their dims appended to the shape. Compound,
reference, opaque and VL-sequence datasets are refused with an error
naming the type; nothing is returned as reinterpreted bytes.
The logic is in a plain-Rust core module, tested natively: unit tests,
and h5py_interop, which compares every dataset, hyperslab, listing and
attribute of an h5py- and a netCDF4-written file with what libhdf5
reads back (generator shared with the Node test of the built package).
No mmap, no threads; lz4 is on, zstd/szip (C) are not. A
wasm-release profile (opt-level s, LTO) serves the browser build.
ci-test.sh lints the crate for wasm32 and checks it builds no C.
