[Paraview] How to know the type of a selection ?

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

First you'll need to locate the selection source proxy i.e. the proxy
that is producing the vtkSelection. Look at
pqSelectionManager::getIndices to see how to locate the selection
source. The selection source proxy will have a property named
"FieldType". That can be used to determine if it's a cell selection or
point selection. Values for this property are:
          <Entry value="0" text="CELL" />
          <Entry value="1" text="POINT" />
          <Entry value="2" text="FIELD" />
          <Entry value="3" text="VERTEX" />
          <Entry value="4" text="EDGE" />
