Convert TDMS files into Mat Files V7.3

You are now following this Submission

Converts TDMS files into MAT files V7.3 with some level of formatting to make the data both human and machine navigable. In addition it does some runtime optimization and chooses to work in memory or on disk to speed up conversion of small files. Files and channels larger than 2GB are supported, but if an individual channel approaches the system rap cap performance will degrade as cache is used.

This is based on the extensive work by Brad Humphreys and others, and the primary change has been to break their work into multiple functions and organize it as a package to ease editing. This can be found at the following link, but to be out of maintenance. https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/44206-converttdms-v10

The dependent function SafeName must also be downloaded. https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/77344-safe-name

An example has been included in the zip file.
