fast5 file validation #23

This isn't urgent, but it would be nice to be able to validate the raw fast5s as they come off the sequencer. Could be a check to run prior to basecalling.

The h5_validator is intended as a tool to validate the output of the latest MinKNOW-core. The schemas are currently intended to be restrictive and therefore additional fields (for example those added by albacore or guppy) will not be expected in the schema and flagged as invalid.
