[Paraview] building code as part of paraview

I've updated the wiki 
<http://paraview.org/Wiki/Plugin_HowTo#Using_Plugins> with the 
information of where you can place plugins for paraview to pick them up 
automatically without setting PV_PLUGIN_PATH.  There's a system-wide 
location (if paraview is installed that way), and a user specific location.
