    \brief Class H5File represents an HDF5 file.
    Modification:
        May 5, 2017: In the class rearrangement of 1.8.10, H5File should have
                been moved to inherit from Group instead, because HDF5 file is
                a root group.  It is now done in 1.10 (Mar 30) and 1.8.19
                releases. -BMR
