Notes for release 5.1.0

=======================

Features
--------
* The validate function to verify coordinates is now available in all languages
* Add list_all_occurrences function in all languages
* Add new isDefined function was added in all languages to check if the IDS has minimal properties
* Add new environment variable IMAS_AL_SERIALIZER_TMP_DIR to control folder used by some serialization protocols
* Add DD version to URI being passed to UDA (so server can detect this for mapping purposes)
* Makefile support for OSX.12.7, Matlab 2023a/b

Fixes

* HDF5 backend: fix bugs when handling list of strings and with new elements allocated in dynamic AoS written by slices (e.g. x_points in equilibrium)
* C++ API: corrects warnings
* Plugins: fix in provenance plugin and add missing documentation
* Examples: fix cases with inconsistent coordinates and cases relying on obsolescent quantities
* Makefile: fix boost lib flags

Others
------
* Preparation for DD4: start handling of alternate coordinates and constant IDSs
