[Paraview] Time-aware custom reader method to update filename in information tab?

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

The xml for the vtkFileSeriesReader should have the following:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<FileSeriesReaderProxy name="MyFileSeriesReader" ...>

*   <StringVectorProperty name="FileNameInfo"
       command="GetCurrentFileName"
       information_only="1" >
       <SimpleStringInformationHelper />
    </StringVectorProperty>*

    <StringVectorProperty name="FileName"
                          ...
                          *information_property="FileNameInfo"*
                          ...>
      <FileListDomain name="files"/>
    </StringVectorProperty>
    ...
</FileSeriesReaderProxy>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
