[Paraview] VTK Image Data Reader

[Dominik Szczerba]

Here is an example header that works fine with raw binary. Compare for
differences, e.g. do you have "_" at the beggining of the data?

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<VTKFile type="StructuredGrid" version="0.1" byte_order="LittleEndian">
<StructuredGrid WholeExtent="0 40 0 20 0 20" Mapping="0 0 0 1 0.5 0.5">
<Piece Extent="0 40 0 20 0 20" Mapping="0 0 0 1 0.5 0.5">
<PointData>
</PointData>
<CellData Scalars="ps" Vectors="v">
