[Ves] Activating vtkxdmf in vtk-android build

[David E DeMarle]

You might be the first to compile hdf5 onto android. We cross compile xdmf
and hdf5  frequently, but only for supercomputer tool chains (cray-gnu and
bluegene-xlc specifically).

As far as I know there is no easy way to remove the hdf5 dependency from
xdmf. xdmf's premise is to be a front end for hdf5 and the binary back end
was added afterward. So it will likely take a bit of hacking to take it
out. Since the back end is componentized though, it should be possible.
