[Paraview] Bug in setting negative extents in Wavelet and Mandelbrot source

I'm running ParaView 3.14.1 on Mac OS X. When I use either the Wavelet
or Mandelbrot sources and try to modify the extent in any dimension to
be negative, something strange happens if I clear out the text field
first before editing it. When I type the negative sign -, the number 1
is inserted. If the text field is not empty, I can move the cursor to
the front of the line edit widget and insert a negative sign if there
isn't one already. The Windows version of 3.14.1 also shows this
behavior.

This behavior does not occur in ParaView 3.12.0 on Mac OS X or Windows.

The common theme might be that the <IntVectorProperty> element for the
extent parameters defined in
ParaViewCore/ServerImplementation/Resources/sources.xml have an
<IntRangeDomain name="range"/> element that isn't being handled
properly. Perhaps something changed in how text field formatting is
handled in ParaView 3.14.1? I haven't yet found a smoking gun.

Thanks,
Cory
