[Paraview] scipy and Windows ParaView 5.5.0

[Shawn Waldon]

Hi Manoch,

ParaView doesn't package scipy on Windows because compiling it (so we know
it works with our Python) is extremely difficult.

What you may be able to do is this:
-Install Python 2.7.X on your system
-Use pip install scipy to install the python wheels from PYPI
-One of the following:
---put the location that scipy is installed in your PYTHONPATH before you
run ParaView
---Prepend the location that scipy was installed to your sys.path right
after starting ParaView
---Copy the scipy folder from the location it was installed into
$PARAVIEW_INSTALL\bin\Lib\site-packages

Keep in mind that this may not work.  We use a slightly older version of
Python 2.7 and I don't know if it maintained ABI compatibility.
You may also run into conflicts with numpy since ParaView's numpy was not
compiled with the fortran support that scipy needs.

HTH,
Shawn
