[Paraview] Abort filter execution

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Aborting filter executions is not currently supported in ParaView. We have
been thinking of providing this support for quite sometime however there are
many issues related with aborting execution midway that need to be addressed
and hence it has been pending. Thanks for adding it on uservoice. If there's
more interest, we will up the priority on this one.
