[Paraview] orientation of cylinder glyph

[Berk Geveci]

It looks like the person that wrote it chose to align the cylinder
with the Y axis. Don't ask me why. You can go into vtkCylinderSource
and change it. Or you can do the following:

* Create a cylinder from the sources menu
* Apply transform, rotate around Z 90 degrees
* Apply Glyph With Custom Source and use the transform as the 2nd
input (called source I think)
