[Paraview] SEG-Y seismic data loading

[Léo Pessanha]

Putting a SEG-Y data in a more direct way is still in the escope of one of
the projects that i am working on. I did some research not a long time ago
and i found that Richard Strelitz wrote a paraview plugin for reading SEG-Y
data at LANL but he gave up since there was no easy way of retaining the
concept of a trace that is so essential to seismic data at the time he was
still trying. He said that would for some of the files he created but we
lost contact.

Maybe he could help, and instead of starting from zero, maybe there`s a way
to continue his work and save some time.

For me it would be a really really great tool to have in paraview!

With the proper guidance, i would really like to help(or try to help) !
