[netcdfgroup] Breaking nc_inq_var_filter

In order to support multiple filters per variable in netcdf-c
I propose to break nc_inq_var_filter by changing the signature from:
> int nc_inq_var_filter(int ncid, int varid, unsigned int* idp, size_t* nparams, unsigned int* params);
to:
int nc_inq_var_filter(int ncid, int varid, unsigned int id, size_t* nparams, unsigned int* params);

Thus this function would require the user to specify the filter
id of interest rather than return the presumed single filter id.
A separate function -- nc_inq_var_filters -- will be defined
to return all the filter ids that apply to a specified variable.

Is this going to be a major problem for anyone?
