[Paraview] OpenGL ES profile on Ubuntu 18.04?

[Ken Martin]

I'm not entirely sure what is going on there... but the ES rendering
support in VTK is pretty similar to the regular desktop rendering. I think
a couple features do not work in ES that work on desktop OpenGL but 99% of
it should be the same.
