Summary:                    FindHDF5.cmake: Make it possible to require parallel
builds
Description: 
Since Ubuntu 15.04, parallel [1] and serial [2] HDF5 installations no longer
conflict and can be installed alongside. Calling `FIND_PACKAGE(HDF5)` on a
system where both are installed will consistently pick one of the two (serial),
making it impossible to to build against the parallel HDF5 installation without
deinstalling the serial one.

FindHDF5.cmake already has a switch that tells you which version was picked
after the fact, but it'd be really useful if you could *require* parallel (or
serial) HDF5 when searching for it.
