pandas >= 1.0.0 fails to read an old HDF5 file
#### Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

```python
import pandas as pd
pd.read_hdf("beads1.h5", "features")
```
#### Problem description

While working on pandas 0.25, this fails starting with pandas 1.0.0. The HDF file was created in November 2015 or even earlier and is inside the [zip file](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/files/4410582/beads1.zip). Other files created at the same time seem to work.

The error message is:
```
