[vtk-developers] complement for "Delete"

[Lisa Avila]

I don't think this breaks anything - it just makes the Tcl script cleaner. 
It is valid right now to do

object->Register(NULL);

but in Tcl this looks ugly. So if we put in Register and UnRegister methods 
that take no arguments and simply call the corresponding one argument 
method with NULL this will take care of Mike's problem with the ugly 
looking Tcl code while still keeping to the New/Delete, Register/UnRegister 
methodology.
