Description

There is a class of HDF5 filters which are only needed when storing chunk data in a file. Should such filters be part of libhdf5 or exist as dynamically loaded plugins? If the latter, is there currently a way to indicate that a filter is not required when reading chunks?

See this comment for further context: https://github.com/HDFGroup/hdf5_plugins/issues/188#issuecomment-3285380863.
