Description

It seems `torch-hdf5` doesn't support 1.10.0 now.

```
$ th -lhdf5
could not load hdf5, skipping
/usr/local/torch/install/share/lua/5.1/hdf5/ffi.lua:71: Unsupported HDF5 version: 1.10.0

Research direction

Start with the failure reported by `th -lhdf5` and inspect `ffi.lua` at the `checkHDF5Version` call on line 71. Determine how HDF5 versions are checked and what is needed for 1.10.0 support; done means the command loads HDF5 without reporting that version as unsupported.
