HDF5-Groups are essentially equivalent to directories in a file system. Inside the groups, other groups or datasets can
be created. For the most parts, groups behave like files, so please also look at the documentation of H5File.
Object of class H5Group.

Parameters
The name of the new dataset. If missing, an anonymous dataset is created
An R-object to take as a template for creating the dataset. Either robj or both dtype and space have to be provided
The datatype to use for the creation of the object. Can be null if robj is given.
The space to use for the object creation. Can be null if robj is given. Otherwise an object of type H5S which specifies the dimensions of the dataset.
Dimension of the new dataset; used if space is NULL. overwrite the dimension guessed from robj
if robj is given.
Size of the chunk. Has to have the same length as the dataset dimension. If "auto"
then the size of each chunk is estimated so that each chunk is roughly as large in bytes as the value in
the hdf5r.chunk_size option. See also guess_chunks for a more detailed explanation.
If set to NULL, then no chunking is used, unless explicitly set in dataset_create_pl.
Only if chunk_dims is not null. If given, then the dataset_create_pl is set to enable zipping
at the level given here. If set to NULL, then gzip is not set (but could be set otherwise in dataset_create_pl
