+ * @file
+ * @internal This function selects the best HDF5 file format options
+ * to create netCDF-4 files that can be read and written by older
+ * library versions.
+ *
+ * Format compatibility is transient, not baked in to an HDF5 file
+ * at creation time.  Therefore the desired compatibilty options
+ * must be selected every time a file is opened for writing.
+ *
+ * This function should be called before every call to create a new
+ * netCDF-4 file, or to open an existing netCDF-4 file for writing.
+ * This function has no effect when opening a file for read only.
+ *
+ * This function should work correctly with all HDF5 library versions
+ * from 1.8.0 through 1.13.0 and beyond, with no further changes.
+ * This assumes that HDF5 versioning controls remain consistent
+ * into the future.
+ *
+ * The basic functionality is to select the traditional HDF5 v1.8
+ * format compatibility, whenever possible.  The less desirable
+ * v1.6 compatibily is selected in a few strange cases when it is
+ * not possible to select v1.8.
+ *
+ * Files created or updated with v1.10 and higher compatibility are
+ * not legal netCDF-4 format, as of 2022 January.  They are not
+ * readable by any netCDF library version linked with any HDF5 v1.8
+ * or older library version.  However, it is possible for advanced
+ * or experimental software to deliberately override these default
+ * format settings, to create advanced format files for special
+ * purposes.
+ *
+ * Files created with v1.6  compatibility have superblock version 0.
+ * Files created with v1.8  compatibility have superblock version 2.
+ * Files created with v1.10 compatibility have superblock version 3,
+ * and are avoided by default.  Et cetera.
+ *
+ * The superblock version is locked in when a file is first created.
+ * It is then possible to get a mix of v1.6 and v1.8 internal
+ * object versions, when an existing netCDF-4 file is modified by
+ * a different software version than the one that originally
+ * created the file.  Mixed-object files of this nature are common
+ * and do not suffer any serious problems.
+ *
+ * See netcdf-c github issues #250 and #951 for more details about
+ * the rationale and evolution of netCDF-4 format compatibility.
+ *
+ * See HDF5 documentation for H5Pset_libver_bounds and related RFC's,
+ * for more details about HDF5 file object versioning.
