Title: Support dynamical loading of LZF filter plugin

This allows using the filter with any program linked against HDF5, e.g., `h5dump`, as discussed in this [thread](
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/h5py/HjKydDPVU38).
```python
import h5py
import numpy as np
f = h5py.File("test_lzf.h5", "w")
d = np.arange(0, 10, 0.1)
f.create_dataset("test", data=d, compression="lzf", shuffle=True)
```

```shell
# export HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH=$PWD
# h5dump test_lzf.h5
HDF5 "test_lzf.h5" {
GROUP "/" {
DATASET "test" {
DATATYPE H5T_IEEE_F64LE
DATASPACE SIMPLE { ( 100 ) / ( 100 ) }
DATA {
