[Paraview] Details of XML filter with lists of input arrays

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Dennis,

Before I answer the question, I need to know what are you adding this
property on? Is this a filter or a reader? The difference is that for a
reader, the information about arrays available is provided by the reader
itself; while for filter, that information is obtained from its input.
