[Paraview] Color bar labels

[Cory Quammen]

Hi Quentin,

In the refactor of the color bar, we decided to replace the unreliable
"number of labels" option with a list of explicit labels you can set. The
number of labels option was only a maximum number of labels and often
didn't give you the requested number. To use the new list option, turn on
the "Use Custom Labels" checkbox in the "Edit Color Legend Properties"
dialog. The list lets you control exactly how many labels to provide, with
the caveat that you need to specify the label values manually. In addition,
there is no prevention of overlapping labels when this option is enabled.

I hope that helps,
Cory
