HDF5 version 1.14.6-1 currently under development

Features included for the next major release:
This is a maintenance release with a few changes and updates:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

* The release process now provides signed Windows and Mac installation binaries
in addition to the Debian and rpm installation binaries. The Mac binaries are
built as universal binaries on an ARM-based Mac.
* Reverted a change to the library's handling of UTF-8 file names. A change was
made in the HDF5 1.14.4 release to address some issues with the library's
handling of code pages and file paths on Windows. This change introduced
other issues with handling UTF-8 file names that caused breakage for software
using the 1.14.4 and 1.14.5 releases of HDF5.

* Added new routines for interacting with error stacks: H5Epause_stack,
H5Eresume_stack, and H5Eis_paused. These routines can be used to indicate
that errors from a call to an HDF5 routine should not be pushed on to an error
stack.
The change has been reverted for this release and will be addressed
differently in a future release.

If you use 1.14.4 or 1.14.5 and are happy with how UTF-8 file names are
handled in those versions, do not update to 1.14.6.

* Updated CMake find_package(ZLIB) defaults to find most system zlib installs.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please see the full release notes for detailed information regarding this release,
including a detailed list of changes.

Platforms Tested
===================

- HDF5 is tested with the two latest macOS versions that are available
on github runners. As new major macOS versions become available, HDF5
will discontinue support for the older version and add the new latest
version to its list of compatible systems, along with the previous
version.
- HDF5 is tested with the latest Linux, macOS and Windows versions that are
available on GitHub runners, with Clang, GCC and Intel compilers. As new
major versions become available, HDF5 will discontinue testing the older
version and add the new latest version to its list of compatible systems,
along with the previous version. HDF5 is also tested on the HPC systems
and older versions listed below. Test results may be viewed at the
"test results" link on the top level README page.
