[Paraview] Color coding of a vector

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

You can set the the 3 components o fthe vector as the r,g,b values
only if the vector components are of the type 'unsigned char'. If
that's the case, then simply uncheck "Map Scalars" checkbox  on the
display tab and the raw data will be used for coloring.
