commit 4e531cd0915b274d06739453866f0311e2414d6e

    ENH: CanReadFile does not fail for newer file version.
    
    CanReadFile does not fail for newer file versions to enable clients (ParaView)
    to distinguish between reader failures caused by a mismatch between the file
    and the reader, and reader failures that cannot be fixed by changing the reader.
    
    A warning will be printed when reading a file with a newer version than the reader.
    
    Legacy readers already behave this way.
