  Notes:
  Collective mode gives the MPI-IO layer underneath HDF5 a chance to do some additional collective optimizations and hence can perform better.

  Developer notes:
  In the HDF5 layer, PETSC_TRUE / PETSC_FALSE means H5Pset_dxpl_mpio() is called with H5FD_MPIO_COLLECTIVE / H5FD_MPIO_INDEPENDENT, respectively.
  This in turn means use of MPI_File_{read,write}_all /  MPI_File_{read,write} in the MPI-IO layer, respectively.
  See HDF5 documentation and MPI-IO documentation for details.

  Input Parameter:

  Level: intermediate

  Notes:
  On first PetscViewerHDF5PushTimestepping(), the initial time step is set to 0.
  Next timesteps can then be set using PetscViewerHDF5IncrementTimestep() or PetscViewerHDF5SetTimestep().
  Current timestep value determines which timestep is read from or written to any dataset on the next HDF5 I/O operation [e.g. VecView()].
  Use PetscViewerHDF5PopTimestepping() to deactivate timestepping mode; calling it by the end of the program is NOT mandatory.
  Current timestep is remembered between PetscViewerHDF5PopTimestepping() and the next PetscViewerHDF5PushTimestepping().

  If a dataset was stored with timestepping, it can be loaded only in the timestepping mode again.
  Loading a timestepped dataset with timestepping disabled, or vice-versa results in an error.
