[Paraview] Paraview 5.2.0 compilation with support for HMD and Python

[Ken Martin]

Hi Guillaume,

I hope to get some time to clean up some issues with the code and to merge
it into PV master. It will probably be a bit though as right now I am
taking another pass at the OpenVR VTK code which it is based on to add a
medical (volume rendering) example and a few options such as a floor etc.
Once that is done, I'll try to get to another pass on the PV code and get
it merged. For now the code can be found at

https://gitlab.kitware.com/ken-martin/paraview/commits/add_vr_2

but I believe that is old and not rebased to 5.2.0. Best bet would be to
rebase that to 5.2.0 and then update VTK to master to get the latest OpenVR
SDK fixes and then hope the two work/compile together.
