[Paraview] Pointer graphical and actual locations misaligned

[Aron Helser]

Hi Keith,
Yes, this is a known bug in some Intel graphics drivers, on Windows, and I
believe we've seen something similar on Linux, as well.
If your lucky enough to be running an Optimus laptop, just switching
ParaView to use the nvidia card fixes the problem.
Intel has also fixed the bug in their latest drivers, but my Dell laptop
hasn't picked up the fix in the official Dell drivers yet.

Here's the bug: https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17499
