[cmake-developers] [PATCH] Fix a few issues in FindHDF5 module

[Paul Romano]

Tim- I did notice your issue about Fortran HL not working but wasn't sure
what the original problem was or if it was still relevant. Anyway, I'm glad
we got a fix in, albeit four years later -- better late than never!

Brad- here's a new patch based off of 8ea7611 that uses the new
NAMES_PER_DIR option of find_program as well adds the HDF5_PREFER_PARALLEL
variable. The only case I know of where h5cc and h5pcc would get into the
same directory is in /usr/bin, e.g. the hdf5-helpers and
libhdf5-openmpi-dev packages in debian. However, the packagers don't use
the name h5pcc but rather h5pcc.mpich and h5pcc.openmpi, so in that case
HDF5_PREFER_PARALLEL doesn't actually help. Anyway, I'm going to cogitate
on the best way to handle that and may return with one more patch to handle
this situation.

Best,
Paul
