Allow specifying new container type from group

Utopia Developers requested to merge feature/allow-specifying-new-container-type-from-group into master

What does this MR do?

This MR makes it possible to specify _NEW_CONTAINER_CLS in BaseDataGroup and derived group classes and thus give a default value for the new_container function's Cls argument.

The HDF5 loader respects this default value, thus allowing to specify the members' type without having to use the enable_mapping feature.

Can this MR be accepted?

  • Implemented the features
  • Tests added or adjusted
  • Pipeline passes
  • Changelog entry added
  • Bumped version to 0.6.0rc1

Anything to double-check?

Nope.

Used first in utopia/utopia#199
