Seed for NiftiArray Class

NiftiArraySeed(
  filepath,
  name = "image",
  header_name = "hdr",
  type = NA,
  header = NULL,
  extendible = FALSE
)

`filepath`	The path (as a single character string) to the NIfTI or HDF5 file where the dataset is located. If a path to the NIfTI is provided we call `RNifti::readNifti()` and `NiftiArray::writeNiftiArray()` to convert to the HDF5 and more memory and time are used. If a path to a HDF5 file the data is simply loaded into R as an object of class NiftiArray. A path to the HDF5 file is more memory and time efficient.
`name`	The name of the group for the NIfTI image in the HDF5 file. Default is set to "image". Unless you have to other "image" groups in the HDF5 file there is no need to change default settings.
`header_name`	The name of the group for the NIfTI header in the HDF5 file. Default is set to "header". Unless you have to other "header" groups in the HDF5 file there is no need to change default settings.
`type`	`NA` or the R atomic type, passed to `HDF5Array::HDF5Array()` corresponding to the type of the HDF5 dataset. Default is set to `NA`. Unless you want different types of HDF5 storage files there is no need to change default settings.
`header`	List of NIfTI header information to override call of nifti_header.
`extendible`	Should a single empty dimension be added to the array? Currently necessary for easy reshaping.

A NiftiArraySeed object

nii_fname = system.file("extdata",
"example.nii.gz", package = "RNifti")
res = NiftiArraySeed(nii_fname)
hdr = nifti_header(res)
res2 = NiftiArraySeed(nii_fname, header = hdr)
