Hello vtk and qt heads,

I've got a new widget to share with you.  Actually it's not new.  I wrote
the code several months ago when I was stuck in an airport.  I finally got
around to rebasing it and pushing to github.  I added a wiki page with
screenshots:

    http://vtk.org/Wiki/DebugLeaksView

Motivation: VTK_DEBUG_LEAKS is a great help, any developer worth his or her
salt has it enabled... (right?)  But it only reports leaky objects at
program shutdown.  I wanted to spy on my vtk objects at runtime.  So I
created this debug leaks widget.  Please see the wiki page for a
demonstration!
