[Paraview] points and cells labels

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Nehme,

Is this in a custom application/python or ParaView GUI. In
python/custom-app you can yourself create (representations,
DataLabelRepresentation) representation proxy and connect it to the
output of your filter. Then it will label all points/cells.
