This allows users of StringHDF5Dataset to write data as fixed-length strings or as variable-length objects depending on whether length is passed. It handles various conversions including non-string types that can be converted to bytes.
The encoding parameter of string_dtype is exposed using the underlying default, "utf-8". This can be overidden to encode as ascii.
It updates the CI to run the hdf5dataset tests and adds a new test for this feature. It also fixes an error message and some existing formatting issues.
