Cleaning up some old issues

[foreverallama]

I think we can clean up some old issues. Listing some here. These aren't bugs but more like feature requests.

1. Changing Compression level in HDF5 Is there a way to change the compression level? #165
2. Using matread from data in memory instead of a MAT-file Read IOStream for use with S3 #42 Read mat file from memory #96
3. Preserve order of struct fields using OrderedDict Preserve order of struct fields? #159
4. Opening a MAT-file with both read-write access Is there a way to open a .mat file with both read and write access? #109
5. Slicing complex matrix in HDF5 MAT-file Incremental reading of complex matrix from MatlabHDF5File #76

The OrderedDict is still on my mind ever since I learned the MatlabClassObject writing requires the fields to be in order. So it might actually be a good idea to make OrderedDict the default (while perhaps making the output dicttype a user option?). Then we have better read-write consistency of structs and classes.
