[gdal-dev] HDF5 and NetCDF now have VSI support

[Even Rouault]

Hi,

I've pushed a change in master that now enables /vsi support for HDF5 for all 
operating systems, and not just Linux >= 4.3. This uses the HDF5 Virtual File 
Driver mechanism:
https://support.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/TechNotes/VFL.html
which allows to plug a custom low-level I/O layer

(In theory, as netCDF V4 uses HDF5 underneath, this could be available for it 
too, but the use of HDF5 is hidden by the netCDF API, so this would require 
patching libnetcdf)
