Compound datatype version 1 carries, per member, a dimensionality and four dimension sizes (HDF5 before 1.4 had no array class). The parser skipped those 28 bytes, so a member such as `f: f32[4]` came back as a single f32 at the member's offset: the compound's size was right but its members were wrong. libhdf5 wraps such a member in an array type of the first `dimensionality` sizes and ignores the permutation; do the same, and reject a dimensionality above 4 as libhdf5 does. Only files old enough to also use layout message v1 have these, so this became reachable with the previous commit (tarrold.h5, tcompound.h5).
