[Kiwiviewer] transient and clip datasets

[Pat Marion]

The code implementation is generic and re-usable, but the KiwiViewer app
hard codes the parameters for the presentation of those two demos.  There
is no configuration file that describes the demos, the KiwiViewer app
instantiates the required objects and sets the parameters in c++ code.
