[Paraview] How to read the file info in *pvd file

[Cory Quammen]

The file names are embedded in the same XML element as the time step:

<DataSet timestep="+1.98800000e+03"  part="001" file="Sout_1012.pvtu"/>

But I'll be that's not how you want to access them.

Next question: From where do you want to access the file names? A Python
script? In the UI?
