[svn-r23775] Implement SWMR-5: Implemented use case 1.9: Appending n-1 dimensional planes Adding the option "-y" which allows chunks to be thicker (more than 1 plane). This supports use case 1.9 which have chunks of multiple planes but writing is still appending one plane at a time. Using -y with "use_append_chunk", would provide the use case of writing a plane to a partial chunk. Using -y with "use_append_mchunks", would provide the use case of writing a plane to multiple partial chunks. Also added the option -n which specifies how many planes to write instead of the defaults of chunksize number of planes. This allows the final dataset to be other than a cube. test/use_append_mchunks.c: test/use_common.c: test/use.h: test/use_append_chunk.c: I also overhauled code in use_append_mchunks and use_append_chunk: 1. creating a set_parameter() to customize individual use case; 2. combine the create_uc_file(), read_uc_file() and write_uc_file() of both use cases appending one plane per chunks and one plane per multiple chunks. Moved these combined create/read/write functions into use_common.c to make future modification and maintence easier. test/test_usecases.sh.in: Added a simple test to demonstarte how to use -y to run use case 1.9. Tested: h5committest, except cmake, passed. Hand tested in Koala for various options.
