Unlimited VDS mappings were refused, and printf-style source names
("f-%b.h5") were not expanded, so those regions read as fill (read-matrix
case 0470: 29 of 30 values wrong). All 7 virtual datasets in the libhdf5
test set use such mappings.

Implement H5Dvirtual.c's semantics in the vds module:
- %b is the block number, %% a literal %, other specifiers are an error;
  block j of the virtual selection comes from the source named with j,
  probing from 0 to the first missing source (printf gap 0);
- unlimited source/virtual selections are clipped to what the source's
  current extent fills (H5S_hyper_get_clip_extent_match, partial last
  block included);
- the extent is recomputed as H5Dget_space does (view "last available":
  the largest clip, never below what limited mappings need), exposed as
  vds::virtual_dataset_extent and used by Dataset::shape();
- a source in the other byte order is byte-swapped; other conversions stay
  an error.

Tests: vds_interop::vds_printf_source_names,
vds_unlimited_mappings_follow_source_extents (h5py low-level API, earliest
and latest format) and vds_libhdf5_test_files (vds-eiger, 4_vds and
vds-percival-unlim-maxmin from HDF5's tools/test/testfiles/vds, committed
as fixtures) all compare shape and values with h5py; unit tests for the
clip arithmetic, name parsing and mapping rules.
