Summary0013434: FindHDF5 does not look up for libraries in the compiler default directories resulting in missing libraries
DescriptionWhen generating HDF5_${LANGUAGE}_LIBRARY_DIRS, the directories where it looks for libraries, FindHDF5 only adds explicitely specified directories.
Some libraries are not in these directories, but rather in the compiler default directories.
FindMPI solves this by appending ${CMAKE_${LANGUAGE}_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES} to the list of looked for directories.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationThe attached patch mimics the FindMPI behaviour that solves the problem

I have encountered this problem on a BlueGene as well. Seems like the fix is relatively harmless to me? It might not be as important when using C compilers to link, but this was causing a problem for me with a Fortran compiler due to issue 0014647.
