[Paraview] Polyhedron support

[Berk Geveci]

There is a possibility that we might be implementing polyhedron
support sometime in the future. Note the use of might, possible etc...
We are not actively working on a polyhedron implementation for VTK.
So, if the lovely folks at cd-adapco are willing to release their
vtkPolyhedron, that would be awesome :-) Theirs will be much better
tested and stable than anything we can do in the near future.
