[vtk-developers] Add python version to all vtk libs that have python dependency

[David Gobbi]

Hi All,

Currently it isn't feasible for copies of VTK that were built
against different versions of Python to be installed under
the same install prefix, because libs like vtkFiltersPython
would conflict between different Python versions.

I propose renaming such libs to e.g. vtkFiltersPythonPy27
to indicate what version of the Python libs they link to.
Something similar was already done for the wrapper libs, e.g.
vtkCommonCorePython27D is CommonCore's wrapper lib.

The renaming can be done automatically for any module lib
that depends on Python, as shown in this merge request:
https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/merge_requests/729

Thoughts?
