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

[Ke Gao]

Actually, what I want to do is using python script to read *pvd file first
to get the name info of *pvtu files. Then use the *pvtu file name to read
through all of them one by one to extract the info I want. I'm not sure if
there is a better way to realize this.

Many thanks.
