Fix issues with empty or uninitialized link names (HDFGroup#4322)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Converts an assertion in H5G_loc_find into a normal error
check that checks for empty link names

Initializes H5O_link_t structure early in H5G__ent_to_link
to avoid trying to free potentially uninitialized memory

Checks for an empty link name after H5MM_strndup in
H5G__ent_to_link

Fixes GitHub HDFGroup#4307
