              bufsize_step - vector of buffer size steps wanted by 
                 caller (MI_var_loop will try, but no guarantees); if
                 NULL, then 1 is assumed. For the first index that cannot be

              icvp      - pointer to icv structure (image conversion variable)

@DESCRIPTION: Routine to do work for getting/putting and converting 
              the type of variable values. Similar to routine ncvarget/
              ncvarput but the calling routine specifies the form in 
              which data should be returned/passed (datatype), as well as 
              the sign. The datatype can only be a numeric type. If the 
              variable in the file is of type NC_CHAR, then an error is 
              returned. Values can optionally be scaled (for image
              conversion routines) by setting icvp->do_scale to TRUE and 
              using icvp->scale and icvp->offset. Dimensional conversion
              can be done be setting icvp->do_dimconvert to TRUE and
              passing a function to be called (icvp->dimconvert_func).

@DESCRIPTION: Converts the invalues to outvalues according to their type.
              Types must be numeric. Values out of range are truncated
              to the nearest value in range. The sign of integer values

                 short : signed
                 int   : signed
              Note that if a conversion must take place, then all input 
              values are converted to double. Values can be scaled through
              icvp->scale and icvp->offset by setting icvp->do_scale to TRUE.
