[Paraview] XML tag for naming tensor components

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Ruben,

(apologies for the delayed reply)

In the VTU XML, you can add component names as follows:

 <DataArray type="Float32" Name="Normals" NumberOfComponents="3"
ComponentName0="XX" ComponentName1="YY" ....>

for each of the components.
