[Paraview] python shell move data from client to server

[pat marion]

If you use the python programmable filter, you can create it & set the
filter routine (python code) via a python macro on the GUI.  If the data you
are trying to manipulate on the GUI is small, you could encode it in a
string and set it in the body of the python programmable filter.
