[vtkusers] Reading 16 bit integer volume.

[Budd Hirons]

If you use vtkImageReader2 instead of the vtkVolumeReader, you can read in 
a single volume file and
still get vtkImageData as the output.

here is an example from a win32 vc++ implementation:

this->vr = vtkImageReader2::New();
this->vr->SetDataByteOrderToLittleEndian();
this->vr->SetDataScalarTypeToInt();
this->vr->SetFileDimensionality(3);
this->vr->SetFileName( _volFile );
this->vr->SetDataExtent( 0, m_width - 1,
                          0, m_height - 1,
                          0, m_depth - 1);
this->vr->SetDataSpacing( m_widthVoxel, m_heightVoxel, m_depthVoxel );
this->vr->SetFileLowerLeft( 1 );
this->vr->Update();
