API changes to vtkEdgeTable and vtkIdList

[Will Schroeder]

Hi Folks-

Last night I checked in a change that introduces API incompatibilities to the classes vtkEdgeTable and vtkIdList.

vtkIdList::IsId(int id) used to return a 0 or 1 to indicate whether the specified id is in the list. Now it returns -1 if the id is not in the list; or a non-negative number indicating the position in the list.

vtkEdgeTable had two changes. The constructor now takes no arguments, and you use InitEdgeInsertion() to tell the class how many points are in the dataset. Also, IsEdge(p1,p2) now returns a -1 if the edge (defined by points p1,p2) is not defined. otherwise a non-negative integer value is returned.

These changes were made to support the association of attributes with edges.
