[vtkusers] VTK & VC++ without CMake

[Jarno Ahma]

For errors like 'error LNK2005: _sprintf already defined in xx.lib': open project linker properties, go to input, and list default libraries to ignore in 'ignore specific library' (or tell linker not to use default libraries at all).
If compile generate error 'LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WinMain at 16 referenced in function _WinMainCRTStartup', open project linker properties, go to advanced, and change the used subsystem to another.

Among the vtk library import definitions, lines..
#pragma comment(lib,"opengl32.lib")
#pragma comment(lib,"glu32.lib")
..might be useful to have.
