[Paraview] Resample DataSet

[John Biddiscombe]

If you look at the vtkProbeFilter code, you can see that the source 
dataset (the geometry onto which you are sampling the input dataset), 
does not pass its scalars through the filter. I think that when it was 
written, it was assumed that probing of the data would occur onto some 
new geometry and the comparison you want to make wasn't imagined at the 
time. The original scalars are lost.

You should be able to add a PassData(blah blah) at the appropriate place 
in the probe filter code and the original scalars will appear alongside 
the new ones.

I would do this for you, but my version of the probe filter is modified 
somewhat and I don't want to mess about with the necessary 
merge/diff/conflicts.

If I have time later in the week (when I'm stuck on a train!) I'll have 
a go at it for you.
