• Test dependency updates

Release v0.5.10

• Add checksum validation, with "Jenkins Lookup 3 Hash". Will help to detect file corruption.
• Add support for opening a HDF5 file from an InputStream. Many Java API provide InputStreams so this improves integration possibilities.

• Test dependency updates

Release v0.5.8

• Breaking API change Dataset#getDiskSize is renamed Dataset#getSizeInBytes and Attribute#getDiskSize is renamed Attribute#getSizeInBytes
• New API method Dataset#getStorageInBytes which returns the total storage size of the dataset. By comparison with Dataset#getSizeInBytes allows the compression ratio to be obtained
• Fixes an issue when reading empty datasets with no allocated storage #162
• Code quality improvements and cleanup
• Dependency updates
• CI and build improvements

Release v0.5.7

• Fix #177 Reading null or padded strings of zero length
