[Paraview] How to simply "Reload" a data file

[Sebastien Jourdain]

I forgot to state the obvious, the plugin is a XML one... No code
involved...

In fact, just having the XML that I wrote in a file extend the UI with a
button to refresh the reader should be enough.
Need to figure out why the reader factory did not catch up the hint.

That should be the only thing that you would need.
