[Paraview] Error building paraview server without X server support: vtkXdmf fails

[pat marion]

I think this is a bug in ParaView/Utilities/Xdmf2/vtk/CMakeLists.txt

This cmakelists compiles vtkXdmfRenderWindowInteractor which uses X11 if
USE_RENDER_WINDOW_INTERACTOR is true.  The logic does not respect the
VTK_USE_X flag.
