"Whats new in HL-HDF 0.7?"

Supporting HDF5 1.8.x.
Major restructure of the APIs (See Migration Guide from 0.6 to 0.7+)
Documentation has been written in doxygen instead to simplify maintenance.
Corrected potential memory leak/crash when translating to a native datatype
_pyhl.setScalarValue and _pyhl.setSimpleValue contained a bug in PyArg_ParseTuple that caused the provided typeidentifier to be corrupted.
Added a test suite that can be run after compilation. (Currently requires that HLHDF has been built with python support).
Added some new functions / ways to work with HLHDF to simplify some use-cases. MORE INFO TO COME HERE...
Since _pyhl was compiled with a libhlhdf.a, it did not share error and debug functions with other python modules. So, _pyhl is now compiled with libhlhdf.so.
HL_NodeList and HL_Node members are now hidden, use HL_NodeList and HL_Node functions instead.
Added possibility to turn on HLHDF memory debugging (with –enable-debug-memory) to get memory usage statistics and warnings.
